Not a lot of people are using Yahoo Mail and Gmail is, more or less, everybody’s top choice. Seeing this, Yahoo has introduced the ability to connect Gmail and Google Apps accounts to Yahoo Mail.

This means that when the user composes an email, she can send it from any account she is connected to (personal, school, work, etc) even while using Yahoo Mail.

All the features you need and love in Yahoo Mail – powerful search, smart contacts, rich compose features and Yahoo Account Key for password-free sign-in – are now available with Gmail. You can now search across your entire history of emails, from day one, for all connected mailboxes.

By offering the chance to use a Gmail account with Yahoo Mail, users get the chance to expand their storage space. While Gmail limits it to 15GB free, Yahoo offers 1TB. How cool is that? If this doesn’t entice you to come back to Yahoo Mail then nothing will.
