ok... but it is in beta so what.

yahoo has to use zimbra to defends its leading position in mail service ,,,,then gmail has no chance....
in my opinion zimbra is better than gmail and thunderbird.
and now you can use your free yahoo account trough imap with zimbra,
isnt it great?
unfortunately it is at moment only with yahoo.com mail adresses possible to use, not with local one like yahoo.de
Yahoo will not kill gmail as long as yahoo is attempting to install on the desktop. Desktop clients are dead... Outlook '07 has won that war. Period. On the other end, kids and 20 somethings want something on their phone... they don't need or want a desktop client (at least all the ones I know).

And if their online version is as slow as their demo, they don't have a chance against even a caveman with chalk and a cave. My yahoo mail times out every now and again (only service that does), so what else should I expect.

We won't even mention when Microsoft launches more Live products... along with integration of online live with Microsoft Office.

edit: my fault, seems IE 7 PRO was blocking portions of the site... zimbra runs fairly fast....
