YAHOO! STRIKES BACK... AT GOOGLE

Sounds more appropriate if it was Microsoft, but Yahoo! is still the bigger dog on the block. My Yahoo! Mail Plus account just got upgraded from 25MB to 2GB and more in response to Google's soon-to-be released Gmail:

Dear Yahoo! Mail Extra Storage Subscriber,

Thanks for being a loyal Yahoo! Mail user. To show our appreciation, we've expanded your Extra Storage service to include all the benefits of the improved Yahoo! Mail Plus, at no additional cost. Yahoo! Mail Plus includes:

-Virus scanning and cleaning provided by Norton AntiVirus™* SpamGuard Plus, a personalized spam filtering system
-No promotional taglines in messages you send
-No graphical ads
-Total message size of 10MB, including attachments
-2GB of email storage

At the end of your current billing cycle, unless you cancel before that date, your Mail Plus service will auto-renew at $19.99/year**.

Thanks for using Yahoo! Mail, and we hope you enjoy the additional features now available to you. For more information, please click here.

Sincerely,
The Yahoo! Mail Team
