Is it possible to use my mac mail application to send and receive my yahoo mail? If so, how would I do it?

Your mac will definitely support Yahoo POP3 email.  First you have to sign up the Yahoo! Mail Plus service ($19). \n\n1. Email Address field, type your full Yahoo! email address (e.g., user@yahoo.com). \n2. Select "POP" for your incoming mail server. \nEnter your POP server settings: \npop.mail.yahoo.com \n3. Type smtp.mail.yahoo.com in the Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server box. \n4. Under User Name, type your Yahoo! ID. (your email address without the "@yahoo.com"). \nUnder Account Name, type your Yahoo! ID (your email address without the "@yahoo.com")\n\nEnjoy!\n-KOZ\nAffirmative Computer Services\nhttp://wwww.affirmtech.net\nAffirmative Computer Services - Phoenix Computer Repair + USA phone support -- Quality American Support -- "Taking back American Computer Repair & Support from inferior Foreign Country Support

Unfortunately, I don't think Yahoo! lets you do this for free anymore (they used to). You have to upgrade to their Plus service to allow POP email. If you do upgrade, then it's simply a matter of setting up the POP and SMTP address in your Outlook (or Outlook Express).

Try using something like Microsoft Outlook. I've never set up an yahoo address with it, but it should allow you to download all your messages and then send out new ones once you are online.

Hi!\n\nLike you, I use a Mac and am frustrated that Yahoo! would be so short sighted as to not be compatible with Mac users.  This used to be evident with Yahoo!News and their news videos not working with any browser on a Mac.\n\nNow, at least, their Yahoo!Video service does... but you need to use Firefox rather than Safari.  You can d/l Firefox at www.firefox.com.  It's free and works well.\n\nYes, we have to "adapt" more than the Windows users ever will... but we're much happier using the Mac than they'll ever be.  ;)

Mail users can read their email in Outlook by subscribing to the Yahoo! Mail Plus service. This service allows you to use Outlook or another POP3 client to access and manage your Yahoo! Mail messages. \n\nIf you are a Mail Plus user, then follow the directions outlined below: \n\nTo configure your POP settings for Microsoft Outlook 2002 (sometimes referred to as Outlook XP) and 2003, follow these steps: \n\nFrom the Tools menu, select "Email Accounts." You may have to click the arrows. \nSelect the radio button next to "Add a new email account" and click the "Next" button. \nSelect the radio button next to "POP3" and click the "Next" button. \nEnter the following information: \nUser Information \n\nYour Name: Enter your name as you would like it to appear in the "From" field of your outgoing messages. \nEmail Address: Enter your full Yahoo!

ID (your email address without the "@yahoo.com"). \nPassword: Enter your Yahoo! password. \nDo not check the box next to "Log on using Secure Password Authentication (SPA)." \nClick the "More Settings" box and select the "Outgoing Server" tab. \nCheck the box next to "My outgoing server (SMTP) requires authentication." \nIf you would like to keep a copy of your email messages on the Yahoo!

Mail messages on both the Yahoo! Mail server and on your local computer. If you want your messages to be deleted from the Yahoo! Mail server after you have received them in Outlook, do not check this box. \nIf your ISP blocks port 25 or if you're unable to send email, then you will need to use port 587 when sending via Yahoo!'s SMTP server. To make this change, please follow the directions below: \n\nFrom the "Tools" menu, select "E-mail Accounts" \nSelect "View or Change existing email accounts" and click on "Next" \nSelect your Yahoo!

As far as i know... it doesnt... but you can configure your email application to download your yahoo emails, then program it to say youve got mail.

Unfortunately, at this time Yahoo does not offer this capability.  You'd have to use Outlook (good choice) or Outlook Express (yuck!) to gain this ability.

First and Foremost - have you looked at Yahoo's email?  It's very good - and sound like it will do what you want.  Plus, the Beta (not yet fully released - but soon - I HOPE!) is looking like it will blow all other web based emails (Hotmail, Gmail) out of the water!!!  I can't wait!  :)\n\nSecond - try Thunderbird.  (http://www.mozilla.com/thunderbird)\n\nIt's supposed to be an excellent email program - and offers a TON of add-ons that will help you make it even more powerful.  Just know that it is a program in flux.  It's what is called "Open-Source" meaning the code for it is open, and everyone helps build it and work with it.  This is a good thing, but also means a program like that will operate like a beta program at times because it needs to be "tweaked" yet.\n\nI also have a friend who likes "The Bat."  I know nothing about it - other than he LOVES it and swears by it.  Do a Yahoo search on "The Bat Email" and you'll find it.  :)\n\nI hope this helps!

Chance are it's never going to work with apple.  Yahoo doesn't really make much of it's software compatible with Mac OS X, except for messenger (which hasn't been updated in a looooong time).

You can do this for free with a gmail account (google mail).  You can forward your yahoo mail to gmail and download the messages using the instructions on the gmail site.

Yahoo uses POP. you want to pick pop3. \n\nincoming is :pop.mail.yahoo.com \noutgoing is :smtp.mail.yahoo.com\n\nI belive Yahoo only allows you to pop the mail if you have yahoo mail premium. Be default because my isp partnered w/ yahoo I have it. \n\nBut you can try the settings and see if it works.\n\nBy the way, Yahoo does not use the email clients listed in your questions. That is a choice you would make. Which program would you use to check your mail. What yahoo does is allow the functionality to use those email clients, which are all POP compatible.

For that you have to upgrade to Yahoo Mail Plus! and then you`ll know the procedure to do what you want.You can sign up to gmail because its POP3 is free!!

I agree.  I have no difficulties automatically sending information from either one Yahoo mail address to another, nor from Yahoo to an external server, although some external servers are a bit slow.  That might be your problem.
