I agree 100% with knight885. I was exclusively a Yahoo mail user for 5+ years, but as soon as gmail came out I realized all of Yahoo's shortcomings because gmail has done everything so much better - I find myself getting irritated now with any email system (including my Outlook-based work email) that doesn't group messages in threads!
The Yahoo Beta Mail is trying to integrate some of the good gmail features, but it is so slow on my Mac that I immediately stopped using it. I have now 95% switched to using gmail exclusively and recommend it to everyone.
I also stopped using AIM and Google Chat in favor of Adium, which I have been thrilled with - my fave feature is the grouping of all IMs in a single tabbed box - no more cluttered screen.
