My Review 

Yahoo mail for small business is the worst option I have ever encountered, and the new Yahoo mail is even worse than the classic version. The classic version was constantly freezing and drafts got lost as a result, there were various errors, etc, but the new one is a real nightmare! It's clumsy, much harder to navigate, to see which messages are flagged, you cannot copy information from an e-mail summary, the stupid thing directly opens the whole mail in a new tab, when I want to just copy info from the summary, which contains data from an Excel file. Now I have to download the Excel file itself and search in it! The new stupid [garbage] even does not work with Opera — I cannot switch between my accounts with Opera, and I was told that it was not a supported browser! However, I did not have any issues working with my favorite browser and this despised mail — Yahoo classic, before. If I and my coworkers had a choice, we would NEVER use this jeer… I hope that all its users will switch to another mail provider and yahoo will die slowly and painfully, as they completely deserve it!!!
