Yahoo! Mail teams up with Dropbox to help manage attachments

Yahoo! Mail which recently got a design upgrade, now has another new feature. Yahoo has teamed up with Dropbox to allow users to send heavy attachments and the feature is now an inbuilt option in the email service. In a blog post, David McDowell, Senior Director of Product Management, Yahoo! Mail wrote,

Starting today, Dropbox is available within Yahoo! Mail. This integration allows you to share and store files more easily, whether they are vacation photos or important documents like tax returns and research papers. And, because files can be stored in your Dropbox account online, it’s easy to find the files you want even when you are away from your desktop.
