<p>Yahoo's march to modernize its core products continues with a significant redesign of Yahoo Mail that brings Flickr-generated themes, a new compose screen, and a host of other features designed to win back defectors. The company is also putting a cap on its previously unlimited storage: 1 terabyte, which the company says should be good for 6,000 years of email. The redesign is rolling out today simultaneously on the web, and for apps on Android, iOS, and Windows 8.</p><p>Mail is a pillar of Yahoo's products, with more than 100 million daily users.

Yahoo has put significant focus on mail this year, introducing new tablet apps and releasing unused email addresses back into the wild. (That last move led to criticism over security concerns.)
