Yahoo Mail has always been accessible via Yahoo’s Mobile deck but today the company launched a beta of a new mobile mail service. The most notable change in the beta is that your mail is now searchable on your mobile device. Very useful.

You can view the Yahoo Mobile site on any browser at this url and view the Yahoo Mail beta here (assuming you have a Yahoo login). Compare with the current version of Yahoo Mail here.

MSN Mobile is also beta testing a mobile version of Windows Live Mail. Presently, Windows Live Mail Beta does not offer (are we missing the link?) a search function. For updates, see the Live Mail blog.

The mobile version of Gmail at http://m.gmail.com does provide a search option.

AOL’s Mobile Portal also offers access to AIM Mail Mobile but mail search is not available.

Yahoo began beta testing Yahoo Photos on their mobile platform a couple of months ago.

In case you don’t have Yahoo Mobile, a few screen caps follow:

+ Yahoo Mobile homepage
+ Yahoo Mail Mobile Beta page
+ Search box
+ Search results page
+ List of Actions, Found at Bottom of Each Message

*For the record, these screen caps were taken from a Treo 700P/Sprint using PDA Reach.
