Sign in to Yahoo mail, then go to options (use the drop down menu next to the "mail" tab).  Then look for "POP Access and Forwarding", and you have to sign up to "Yahoo! Delivers", but as far as I know it is free.  Once you sign up, I think you will get on screen instructions on how to configure outlook.\n\nI have done this before, but it's not all that great to do.

Gather your smtp and imap/pop3 server information from your existing outlook account, as well as your username/password for the email servers. Simply apply those settings in a new identity on another computer, and check your email. I however don't use outlook express anymore, but I believe the menu is under FILE > Manage Identities. Then from there you should be able to view your account information.

well,we do have a serious problem in hand.\nFirst it would had been better if u could let us know if you are using a cline softwar like (outlook)etc,Or u r direct;ly accessing it form the web server.\n\nIf it is the client software then please check the error message .If no error message come up.Then try to create another account on the outlook if u r using one.\n\nIf u r working on the webserver then check with the yahoo tech support if they have any outages on the server for your email or not .

I'm not sure if you can set Yahoo as default.  My options are Outlook Express and Hotmail.\n\n**UPDATE** Okay, I found out for you.  Here goes:\n\nVisit this link\nhttp://help.yahoo.com/help/us/mail/ext/ext-11.html\n\nthen click 'Continue', It will say "The driver has been succesfully downloaded".  You may have to install an ActiveX control (a bar will pop up at the top of the window after a few seconds - click the bar then click Install ActiveX Control).  You're done.  To make sure it worked:\n\nIn Internet Explorer's menu bar, click Tools - Internet Options, then click the 'Programs' tab.  Under the 'Email' dropdown box it should say "Yahoo! Mail".

Yahoo! Mail users can read their email in Outlook Express by subscribing to the Yahoo! Mail Plus service. This service allows you to use Outlook Express 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\nOutlook Express allows you to add a new email account to your existing profile. This means you do not have to replace your current settings in order to send and receive Yahoo! Mail messages. Here's how:\n\n   1. From the Tools menu, choose "Accounts."\n   2. Select the "Mail" tab.\n   3. Click the "Add" button.\n   4. From the Add menu, click "Mail."\n   5. In the text box labeled Display Name, type your name and click "Next."\n   6. In the Email Address box, type your Yahoo! Mail address (be sure to include "@yahoo.com") and click "Next."\n   7. Under "My incoming mail server is a..." select "POP3."\n   8. Type "pop.mail.yahoo.com" in the Incoming Mail (POP3, IMAP, or HTTP) Server box.\n   9. Type "smtp.mail.yahoo.com" in the Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server box.\n  10. Click "Next."\n  11. In the Account Name box, type your Yahoo! Mail ID (your email address without the "@yahoo.com").\n  12. In the Password box, type your Yahoo! Mail password.\n  13. If you want Outlook Express to remember your password, check the "Remember password" box.\n  14. Do not check the boxes labeled "Log on using Secure..."\n  15. Click "Next."\n  16. Click "Finish."\n\nImportant: The Yahoo! Mail SMTP server now requires authentication. To turn this setting on:\n\n   1. From the Tools menu, choose "Accounts."\n   2. Select the "Mail" tab.\n   3. Double-click the account labeled "pop.mail.yahoo.com."\n   4. Select the "Servers" tab.\n   5. Check the box next to "My Server Requires Authentication."\n   6. Click "OK." \n\nTo control deletion of messages from the Yahoo! Mail Server:\n\n   1. From the Tools menu, choose "Accounts."\n   2. Select the "Mail" tab.\n   3. Double-click the account labeled "pop.mail.yahoo.com."\n   4. Select the "Advanced" tab.\n   5. In the Delivery section at the bottom of the window, check "Leave a copy of messages on server" if you want to save your Yahoo! Mail messages on the Yahoo! Mail server as well as on your local computer. Do not check this box if you want your messages to be deleted from the Yahoo! Mail server once you have received them in Outlook Express. \n\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\n   1. From the "Tools" menu, select "Accounts"\n   2. Select your Yahoo! POP account and click on the "Properties" button\n   3. Click on the "Advanced" tab\n   4. Next to "Outgoing server (SMTP), change port 25 to 587\n   5. Click "Apply", then click "OK" and "Close"

Have a look on the link below - i haven't used Outlook for some time, but I would imagine the "import/export" tool would be the best way to go. Other than that it might just be better to create a new compatible folder.\n\nJust keep in mind that Office 2007 is just around the corner, and a lot of work has gone into making things much more backwards and forward compatible - might be worth your while taking a look if you are running multiple platforms/versions

You have to have paid accounts in order to access yahoo or hotmail through Outlook,Outlook Express or Incredimail, but if you have a paid account, you can use any of these.

(You may need to contact your ISP, Internet Service Provider, to get it.)\n\nFirst, information about the e-mail servers:\n\n• The type of e-mail server you use: POP3 (most e-mail accounts), HTTP (such as Hotmail), or IMAP\n\n• The name of the incoming e-mail server\n\n• For POP3 and IMAP servers, the name of the outgoing e-mail server (generally SMTP)\n\n\nSecond, information about your account:\n\n• Your account name and password\n\n(For some solid advice about making a secure password, read the Create strong passwords article.)\n\n• Find out if your ISP requires you to use Secure Password Authentication (SPA) to access your e-mail account—yes or no is all that's required.\n\n\n2.\nStart Outlook Express, and on the Tools menu, click Accounts.\n\nIf the Internet Connection Wizard starts up automatically, skip ahead to step 4.\n\n3.\nClick Add, and then click Mail to open the Internet Connection Wizard.\n\n\n\nMail option from the Add button\n\n\n4.\nOn the Your Name page of the wizard, type your name as you want it to appear to everyone who gets e-mail from you, and then click Next.\n\nMost people use their full name, but you can use any name—even a nickname—that people will recognize.\n\n5.\nOn the Internet Explorer Address page, type your e-mail address, and then click Next.\n\n6.\nOn the E-mail Server Names page, fill in the first block of information that you gathered from your ISP in step 1, and then click Next.\n\n\n\nInternet Connection Wizard's E-mail Server Names\n\n\nNote: If you chose HTTP as your incoming e-mail server—as for a Hotmail or MSN account—this wizard page changes slightly so you can identify your HTTP mail service provider.\n\n7.\nOn the Internet Mail Logon page, type your account name and password.\n\n\n\nInternet Connection Wizard's Internet Mail Logon\n\n\nNote: If you're concerned about break-ins to your e-mail, click to clear the check in the Remember Password box. You'll then be prompted for the password each time you send or retrieve mail.\n\n8.\nClick Next, and then click Finish.\n\nYou're ready to send your first e-mail!\n\nUnsure if your new e-mail account is working?

I don't think so as AOL uses Netscape for browser and Outlook uses Explorer. I have been able to get my yahoo mail and hotmail accounts to come through Outlook but not my CompuServe (also uses Netscape) account.\nTo set them up, you have to pull down the "tools" in the upper bar and select "email accounts". There should be a wizard to help you once you get there.
