The Yahoo Mail service is one of the leading e-mail providers coming after Gmail and Outlook.
As of 2022, Yahoo Mail has over 200 million active global users.
Yahoo operates not only as an email service, but also as a search engine, a directory, and a news section.
During the past years, Yahoo has been competing with Google to capture more market share. A number of innovative features were released by Yahoo, such as Instant Messenger, Flickr, and the acquisition of a 40 percent stake in Alibaba, one of the largest Chinese e-commerce companies.
