More on Yahoo Mail Upgrade
Computer Weekly published an article today that details Yahoo Mail's recent upgrades in more detail.
One thing I hadn't noticed yet was something called AddressGuard, a unique feature that allows you to "create and manage disposable email addresses to defend your primary address against spam." I don't think I've seen something like this before. Mail Plus users can now create aliases for the main Yahoo address that are destroyed whenever you choose to delete them.
I'm sure these measures won't totally eradicate spam for Yahoo Mail users, but pretty soon, it'll be darn near impossible to spam people @yahoo.com.
