There are also a number of settings controlling the appearance of messages, and there s even a thesaurus to complement the spelling checker. There is only one feature of HotMail that s annoying. When you log out, you re automatically directed to MSN Microsoft s online network. And they were right. The developers put a lot of thought into YahooMail s usability and it shows.
All navigation is done with text links.
On top of that, you can use either a frames or no-frames version, and even switch off YahooMail s JavaScript functions.
