My Yahoo mail account was created as a Rocketmail account, likely in 1996 or 97, when Rocketmail launched and became the biggest Hotmail rival.

Yahoo acquired it and it became Yahoo mail.

So 27 or 28 years



I suppose it's Yahoo for me too. I thought it was a few years older than that, but it can't be, as it was launched in '97, indeed.


Same, came here to say yahoo mail


Me too. I now use it for "I don't care" accounts so it is literally full of spam.
