Although Gmail's labeling system is cool, I think having the option to create folders should also be added. In my case I use Thunderbird so I can create folders and sort incoming mail with filters. Yahoo's spam filter sucks. Gmail's spam filter rocks! I never get spam mails in my inbox and whenever I get spam in the Spam box, the most I get per month is only 10. Like Aja, I won't be using my Gmail account for remote storage so I'm sure the current normal capacity is more than enough for emails. And last but not least, if you have a Gmail account and use Firefox as your browser, you definitely should install the Greasemonkey and Better than Gmail add-ons. I read Google Reader feeds inside my Gmail account. :) Never looked back since I shifted to Gmail.

Don't tell me they [Yahoo!] retained the 10MB or so limit per attachment, it just won't work with an unlimited storage space scheme. All in all, I guess this is just a marketing strategy from Yahoo! to bring back lost customers to Google, or probably get a better number of sign ups in the future.

I guess it is just so natural to me seeing threads instead of individual messages that I tend to forget it is a unique feature. :P Thanks to Jhay I remember Gmail’s conversations.

The system works great, the labels are as Aja said, a stroke of genius add to the the labeling scheme. The conversation type handling of messages is cool plus you could get it work with your domain.

And Gmail's labeling system, compared to Yahoo!'s folders, is genius, <acronym title="in my opinion">IMO</acronym>. I will probably never get to fill my 2-<acronym title="Gigabyte">GB</acronym> Gmail for my domain inbox in ten years with <em>just</em> mail, since I'm not going to treat my inbox as a remote storage device (for I'd eventually be downloading the files again anyway). I'd go stick with my beloved Gmail. :) Storage capacity aside, Gmail still rocks with a better spam protection than that of Yahoo!’s.
