Yahoo! Mail Announces Photomail Beta, Providing An Easier Way
To Share Photos By E-Mail
Additional Yahoo! Mail Updates Include Availability of More
Languages, Integrated Top News Feed, and DomainKeys Indicator
Sunnyvale, CA -- Yahoo! Inc., (Nasdaq:YHOO - News) announced last
month the beta release of an innovative e-mail photo sharing
feature called PhotoMail, available for free from Yahoo! Mail
(http://mail.yahoo.com), a global leader in e-mail and the No. 1
e-mail service in the United States. PhotoMail greatly simplifies
the e-mail photo sharing experience by allowing people to insert up
to 300 photos into the body of an e-mail, minimizing the worry of
exceeding message or attachment size limits. The new PhotoMail
feature tightly integrates Yahoo! Mail with both Yahoo! Photos and
Yahoo! Image Search.
Yahoo! Mail is also adding six additional languages and new
localized sites to make the service available in more languages
than any other Web-based e-mail provider, a new customizable "In
the News" feature to the welcome page for its U.S. users, and an
extension to its DomainKeys e-mail authentication technology to
increase consumer protection from spam, e-mail forgery, and
phishing scams.
Laptop Battery The PhotoMail feature allows the sender to drag-and-drop images
from anywhere on their computer, Yahoo! Photos, or even the Web and
insert them as smaller 'thumbnail' previews into a Yahoo! Mail
message. PhotoMail messages can be personalized by adding captions
and borders to the pictures, and the size and quality of the
pictures can be easily adjusted. Through integration with Yahoo!
Photos, the No. 1 online photos site in the
world, PhotoMail users receive
free and unlimited photo storage. People can also insert images
from Yahoo! Image Search, the largest index of images on the
Web, with more than 1.5 billion images. PhotoMail is another
example of Yahoo!'s commitment to provide a truly integrated
communications experience where people can communicate with the
people in their lives however and whenever they want.

Indicator confirms whether or not the e-mail really does, in fact,
come from the expected domain listed in the "From" line. More
information on DomainKeys is available at

taking away all the complexity of dealing with large e-mail
attachments and making it easier than ever to share images with
Yahoo! Mail," said Andy Spillane, vice president of Yahoo!
