Bangalore: Yahoo had introduced the beta version of its online mail service in October last year, now it has introduced full version of Yahoo mail. This service is available in 43 markets and 26 languages around the world. The new version includes social networking features, through which the Yahoo Mail users can respond to messages from Facebook, Yahoo! Groups and webmail providers directly from their inbox with a reply bar. Yahoo has also included some apps in its e-mail service from third parties, such as the mega-file sending service YouSendIt, and the invitation application Evite. This version has applications that let users unsubscribe from unwanted e-mails or send 100mb messages from inbox. If the user wants to compose an IM, SMS or e-mail, they will find most frequent contacts and lists readily available. Users can store and search IM and SMS conversations in addition to e-mails. Blake Irving , Yahoo Chief Product Officer, said, "Yahoo's vision for online communications brings together all the tools that people use to connect--e-mail, chat, SMS, and social updates--and makes it easier for them to share content and engage in conversations with the people that matter most to them."
