I have Microsoft Outlook and it has the option to synchronize email folders and I already have it with my comcast email, but want it with my yahoo email address also, since I use it more. It asks which server to use and has the options: Microsoft Exchange Server, POP3, IMAP, HTTP, or Additional Server Types. Which one of these do I choose? Where do I go from there? I tried the HTTP server and entered http://www.yahoo.com in the URL, but it didn't work, so what should I enter or do I need a different server type? Thank you very much for your help.

Yahoo stopped the POP3 service some time ago forcing users to use the slow and full of ads web interface. Since then the programers have made a few POP3 emulators for all web based email services. The idea is that your Outlook (or the more secure ThunderBird) can connect to the POP3 emulator while the emulator fetches the web pages from your yahoo mail account parses and repacks them as POP3 message and serves them to your full-of-problems-virus-friendly Microsoft Outlook.\n\nThere is yahoopops and freepops that work with yahoo. freepops is the one with modules for almost every webmail service in the world including Yahoo, AOL, Netscape, Hotmail, etc. For yahoo they support these domains:\n@yahoo.ca\n @yahoo.co.in\n @yahoo.co.uk\n @yahoo.com\n @yahoo.com.ar\n @yahoo.com.cn\n @yahoo.com.tw\n @yahoo.de\n @yahoo.es\n @yahoo.it

Microsoft Outlook -  It connects to a pop-3 server and retrieves your emails.  It also comes with lots of other features - many very useful.  \n\nYahoo!  and Hotmail are web based email services.

Depends on what e-mail site you are trying to get mail from.  If Yahoo mail, it is pop.yahoo.com and smtp.yahoo.com.\n\nHowever, you can not use Outlook Express to access a free Yahoo e-mail account.  You have to pay for Yahoo Plus e-mail before you can use Outlook Express

Hi Bikerangelmom.\n\nI think that in order to check your email with either email provider that you have to pay a subscription price for a premium service in order to use them from Outlook or Outlook Express.  'Yahoo! Mail users can read their email in Outlook Express by subscribing to the Yahoo! Mail Plus service"\n\nMSN or hotmail is http:  Accessing your Hotmail account with Outlook Express, available for subscribers of MSN Hotmail Plus.\n\nBoth have a mail plus offer.  It used to be free but not anymore.  Sorry...

You should subscribe for POP3 from all this ISP (Internet Service Providers) like AOL, MSN, Yahoo,Hotmail, so that you can create your accounts in Outlook which it works with all your accounts. Once you open your Outlook it will archive from all your mail accounts.

Not sure about MSN.\nBut to use Outlook to retrieve your Yahoo! email. You have to sign up for Email Plus.. Which costs $19.99(US) a year.\nThat would be called Pop3 access.\nIf you already have Email plus.. The link below shows you how to setup outlook.

What you need to find out from work is your pop server and smtp server names.  This is how you set it up once you have that: http://products.secureserver.net/email/email_outlook.htm\nhttp://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/ie6/using/howto/oe/setup.mspx

Yes and no... \n\nThe free Yahoo accout will only let you access your mail through a wed browser (Internet Explorer, FireFox, NetScape, etc...) \n\nTo use Outlook to access your mail you need a account that can be access by "Post Office Protocol" or "POP3" ... you can get Yahoo to provide you with that service but they charge you for it... I forget the price... $20-40 per year I think... \n\nIn POP3 the Client program (Outlook or Outlook Express) links to a "Mail Server" Program that runs at your mail provider (say Yahoo) and after some level of authentacation the server will reply with a list of messages that it is currently holding for the account...  The client can then direct the server it send any or all of the held messages and whether or not to delete them from the server... the messages are then sent to the client as data files... \n\nOnce the client receives the message it is stored on your local computer can be displayed by the Client (Outlook) at any time regardless of whether the local computer has access to the Internet or not... Very useful if you don't have 24/7 access to the net (think dial-up and sharing the line with voice)\n\n\n\nEnder

most likley is is a pop3 but you will need to call AOL and find out the server address to configure outlook

Ask your techs at work.  Your exchange server will probably have "outlook web access" available, but it will have to be set up for you to be able to access it.  The other option would be to use the remote desktop feature on XP (or use a third party software package) that will allow you to use your office computer as if you were at work.

POP3 is your incoming mail server, the one that transfers your mail to you.  SMTP is the outgoing server that transfers your mail out to other users.  The names may be the same, or they may be different from each other.  mail.zoomnetinternet.net is likely at least the POP3 server.  Just be sure you have it spelled correctly.\n\nI tried to find your ISP on the web and couldn't.  Their site should be able to give you some help on this.  Sorry I couldn't offer more.

Yahoo is web based e-mail, unless you pay for POP through Yahoo. Just in case you don't know, POP is where the e-mail is downloaded to your compuer, but web-mail is stored on the server on the web. You can usually view POP mail through the web, but it doesnt work the other way around.\n\nSolution: sign up for POP access. This will allow that cool e-mail feature to work. You can do that through your ISP for free, Yahoo and MSN charge a little bit. I use Bluebottle (it's free!) Then set up Entourage, or preferably the program that came on the mac called Mail, as your default e-mail reader.

I think you are trying to set your yahoo account with outlook..\n\nYou cannot access Imap server or Pop3 server of yahoo unless you are upgrading your yahoo mail to yahoo mail plus.. Upgrading is payable

A mail server is a computer with a program that knows how to handle mailboxes, sending and receiving mail.\n\nPOP is now only POP3 (POP, version 3); it's the protocol that allows you to download mail from a mail server.  \nSMTP is the protocol that allows you to send mail to a mail server.\nHTTP mail is not really mail at all; it's just an interface, a program that transforms what you enter into a SMTP message to send, or is able to read POP3 to display to you the contents of your mailbox.

if you have SBC Yahoo! DSL, double check the pop3 incoming server name. it should be\nIncoming: pop.sbcglobal.yahoo.com\nOutgoing (SMTP): smtp.sbcglobal.yahoo.com\n\nor if you have regular yahoo i dont know because i dont know anyone who pays extra for premium.
