Yahoo! truly?

 

 

To get started, all you have to do is click on the button ‘Facebook Friends’ located in a tab on the left-hand side of your browser. You’ll then see a thunderbolt icon, by clicking on which you permit Facebook Connect to access your account. Your Facebook contacts will now be visible whilst you send or check your mails. You can also check your archived conversations via this new setup.

 

The mail service of Yahoo beta has recently been receiving a lot of flak from users owing to the issues relating to the downloading of attachments, as also, users complained of being logged out randomly.
