Say goodbye to Yahoo! Mail tagline advertisements

Yahoo! Mail

Once upon a time, signing up for a free email account meant bombarding everyone you ever sent a message to with in-message advertisements. But those days are long gone. Or at least a few days gone. Yahoo! has removed the tagline advertisements that had been automatically appended to any message sent from a free email account.

We haven't done an extensive survey of free webmail providers, but we believe this means you can send ad-free messages with Yahoo! Mail and Gmail, while AOL and Windows Live Hotmail still tacks a message to the bottom of each email. If you know of any other ad-free, or ad-saturated services, let us know in the comments.
