This used to be my mail client of choice until Gmail came out. Now I have slowly been shifting all my Yahoo mail over to Gmail.

Basically, Yahoo mail feels bloated and cumbersome. It takes longer to load than Gmail and its menus are difficult to navigate. The spam filters aren't as good, either, and I now prefer Gmail's nested conversation way of dealing with multiple replies to the traditional "view each message individually". Still, I would use Yahoo over Hotmail any day, given the choice.
