What’s different about the new version of Yahoo Mail Classic?

r-onlineinformation.blogspot.com

The following table starts with the new stuff that we added or altered. Further down, you'll see features we moved or removed. We hope you enjoy the enhanced speed and overall performance that all these changes are designed to deliver!

New FeaturesDetails
Auto-save to Draft Yahoo! Mail Classic now automatically saves a copy of the message you’re working on in your Drafts folder in case you lose your internet connection or your computer malfunctions. Any time you save a draft (auto or manual), the latest version of the message is saved.
Message HeaderWe streamlined it.
SignatureInstead of a check-box under the Compose window, your signature -- if you added one in Mail Options -- will always simply appear "inline" in the Compose window, at the bottom. You'll see it there even if you've UN-checked "Add Signature To All Outgoing Messages" in Mail Options. If you'd rather not include it, either delete it on a case-by-case basis per email inside the Compose window, or delete it entirely from Mail Options.
Address Book = ContactsAll references to “Address Book” got changed to “Contacts” in the new Yahoo! Mail Classic.
Mark as SpamMarking a message as Spam now moves messages to Spam folder instead of Trash.
One-click FlaggingThe new Flag column -- just one column to the right of the check-boxes -- makes it super easy to flag messages. Also new, you can flag a message directly from the header while you're reading it.
Spam Folder = Spam FolderUpdated folder name from “Spam” to “Spam”. Because, well, that’s what it is!
Message EncodingChange message encoding now on a per-message basis, inside the message view.
Folder RenamingRename and delete your personal folders directly within the folder view.
Cc: Field on Compose PageYou don't have to click to open this field anymore. It's always there.
Rich-text/Plain-text linkOn the Compose page above the message window, you can click either Rich Text or Plain Text to select the format you prefer.
News ModuleNow you’ll see the same News Module that currently appears in the all-new Yahoo! Mail.
Flagged-message and Attachment sortingClick these column headings to sort messages by what's flagged or has attachments.
DownloadingWe streamlined it. In most cases, downloading now requires just one click!
Screen Reader Accessibility Yahoo! Mail Classic offers enhanced accessibility to screen readers.

Features We RemovedDetails
Today’s tipToday’s tip was on the Welcome page.
Send an e-cardGone, but you can still send e-cards by visiting http://www.yahoo.americangreetings.com/
Avatar displayYou won’t see your Avatar on the welcome page anymore when you log in.
InstalistWe’ve taken out the option to create a mailing list for recipients, which was on the "Message Sent" page. Here's how to create a category if you want to send to a group.
Online Presence IndicatorWe removed the icon showing whether your contacts are online or offline with Yahoo! Messenger.
QuickbuilderWas a way to scan saved messages for people you hadn't added to your Contacts yet. It's gone, but anytime you send email to a new contact, you have the option to Add to Contacts on the "Message Sent" page.
Add Mobile AlertIf you want to get an alert on your Mobile Device when mail from a specific sender arrives, instead of clicking Add Mobile Alert (which used to appear in the header above a message you were reading), go to the Filters section of Mail Options to set this up.
Forward as AttachmentIn new Yahoo! Mail Classic, you can’t forward a message as an attachment anymore. Of course, you can still forward! But the forwarded message will be "inline" -- i.e., seen as part of a regular email.
“Add to My” buttonWe removed the icon at the bottom of the Inbox that enabled you to add an Inbox preview to your My Yahoo! page.
Keyboard ShortcutsWe removed Check Mail, Compose, and other keyboard shortcuts. (e.g. Control + Shift + P for Compose.)
Save Message TextGone: the link in message view that saves the text of an email.
Attachment PreviewThis feature gave you the chance to view both Microsoft Word and Excel files as HTML pages. Now, it’s gone.
Messenger-with-Voice IntegrationWe removed this feature, which integrated Yahoo! Messenger with Voice into Yahoo! Mail and enabled you to see new voicemail messages on the Welcome page or call or IM from the message view.

Peer to Peer (P2P) Search Engine

r-onlineinformation.blogspot.com World Wide Web (WWW) is emerging as a source of online information at a very faster rate.It’ s content is considerably more diverse and certainly much larger than what is commonly understood. Information content in WWW is growing at a rate of 200% annually. The sheer volume of information available makes searching for specific information quite a daunting task. Search engines are efficient tools used for finding relevant information in the rapidly growing and highly dynamic web. There are quite a number of search engines available today. Every search engine consists of three major components: crawler, indexed repository and search software. The web crawler fetches web pages (documents) in a recursive manner according to a predefined importance metric for web pages. Some example metrics are back link count of the page, forward link count, location, page rank etc. The Indexer parses these pages to build an inverted index that is then used by the search s ...

Tips for running queries on Oracle

r-onlineinformation.blogspot.com Tips for running queries on Oracle We encourage the use of PostgreSQL for the labs, to expose students to an excellent open source database.  However, if your syllabus forces you to use Oracle (and all participants at your remote centre are also from universities where they are forced to use Oracle), you can do assignments on Oracle.  Our model solutions will often give syntax errors on Oracle due to non-support for some SQL features in Oracle.  Below are some tips on how you can rewrite the queries to work on Oracle. Oracle SQL Tips: non-standard features, and limitations The following issues are for Oracle 10, and may or may not apply to later versions of Oracle. Oracle does not support the  as  clause, except as part of the "with" statement. In all other cases, just use the same syntax without the "as" keyword, and things should work. To use a single quote in a string, use two consecutive single qu...
