Gmail/Yahoo email almost mirror images now

[Mr S]

Does anyone here also find it weird that Gmail and Yahoo email format almost look identical now? The new Yahoo email looks like the previous Gmail generation before they installed their new tabbing system.

Anyone know any free email provider companies where the servers aren't based in USA? All the free email providers that don't have servers based in USA typically have other language fill-in forms, even when they are translated I can't get past the security part cause I don't know the language or have the proper alphabet keyboard.

That's more of a social networking/texting/chatting/video site like Skype. I want solid email account with decent size that doesn't have servers located in USA. Yandex would be an option but I don't have a Cyrillic keyboard to get past the security questions.

No, QQ has a separate email system included with the download. After you download it, just click the mail button on QQ to get QQ email on your computer.

I noticed that earlier too. My Yahoo email now looks like Gmail and they didn't even ask my permission to move me the new format, and there doesn't seem to be any way to switch back to Yahoo classic format.

Before, they had an option in settings to choose whether you wanted the standard Yahoo format or the one with threads, like Gmail. Now they force you to the Gmail format. Stupid.

Btw, yes QQ has an email system. You can even log in at their website:

However, your emails will likely be monitored by the Chinese government. So take your pick, you want the US government spying on you or the Chinese government? lol
