SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) - Yahoo Inc. plans to offer unlimited e-mail storage to its roughly quarter of a billion users, starting in May, it said on Tuesday.

The world's biggest e-mail service is scrapping its free e-mail storage limit of 1 gigabyte, or about a billion bytes of data, responding to explosive growth in attachment sizes as people share ever more photos, music and videos via e-mail.

I hope they will also increase the limit for the attachments.
I use yahoo mail since almost their day one and I am very satisfied with it.
