If Hotmail and Outlook dominate the business email client market, then Yahoo Mail holds the top position for individual consumers. Fingerprint has disclosed for the first time ever, information about its own consumers.

Data has been collected from approximately three million email recipients using Fingerprint analysis tools. You can find the complete report on the Fingerprint Website.
