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

yes you can ... and that to in a web based format . u don't need to configure any e-mail client or use Trillian (multi network chat  client).\nYou need to refer your alll mail account's POP/IMAP servers's address along with username and password in mail accounts section of your mail section.\n HOW to setup in Yahoo mail account? Refer the gude below\n ok let's take the case of Yahoo Mail Itself.\n Open your mail account on internet by loggin at mail.yahoo.com\n once logged in click on "OPtions" link (see right side top)\n then in "options" click " Mail " under "options" (on left hand side ) then click on "mail addresses" under "Mail \noptions". NOw click "add" and add all other e-mail accounts that you wish to view from this yahoo mail account. Provide an account name and click "Continue" button then add the mail servers POP3 adddress with username and password and then select a clolor differentiator marker to distingusih between different e-mail accounts. and then clicl "setup mail   server" button. \nSimilarly add as many e-mail account's setup information that you wish to check from this single yahoo mail only.\n\nPlease note ... all e-mail accounts that you add in here must support POP3/IMAP access to it (this is generally a paid service), If this is not enabled then you won't be able to access mails from that account.\n\n I think that this will suffice your need. :-)

You cant use pop and smtp for yahoo. Its a paid service for that option.\n\nIf its gmail, it would be pop.gmail.com and smtp.gmail.com. \n\nPop is the incoming server, smtp  is the outgoing server.\n\nYou can also do it for hotmail, but yahoo its a paid service to get that setup and working. If you need further help step by step, then just contact me and I can try to help you.

Outlook Express will work with any free online e-mail server.  As for where to get an address, you could simply make a new hotmail account that works, or you could use http://www.mail.com , http://www.gmail.google.com , Yahoo! Mail, or any of the many options availiable if you search for them on the Internet.  This is a great link that lists all free pop3 e-mail websites: http://www.freemailguide.com/free_pop3_email.html.  They are all free.\n\nHowever, if your desire is to run an e-mail account through a program that isn't in your web browser, I would recommend Mozilla Thunderbird instead of Outlook Express.  It runs virtually the same as Outlook Express, so you won't have to learn a whole new program, and it had better junk mail filters, advanced security, and automatic updates!  You can download it at http://www.mozilla.com/thunderbird/.  \n\nI hope I helped!  Good luck!

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

Only paid versions of Yahoo! Mail support the POP3/SMTP servers because the free versions need to show ads. So, if you don't pay your limited to the ad-laden webmail.\n\nThere IS YPops! (http://www.softpedia.com/get/Internet/E-mail/Mail-Utilities/YahooPOPs.shtml ) -if you download it you can use a free Yahoo! Mail address and it will simulate a POP3/SMTP server for your email. I haven't tried it myself.\n\nIf you do pay, follow the instructions below.\n\nThe incoming server is a POP3 server, and the address is pop.mail.yahoo.com.\n\nThe outgoing server is an SMTP server, and the address is smtp.mail.yahoo.com.\n\nYour email is your yahoo email address, including the @yahoo.com.\n\nYour username is the part of your email before the @ sign. Your password is the same as your password on yahoo.\n\nWhen setting up the SMTP server, go to "More Settings", then "Outgoing Server". Check "My Outgoing Mail Server requires authorization.\n\nMake sure you DON'T check "Log on using Secure Password Authentication (SPA)."\n\nEnjoy!

Unless you pay for your Yahoo Mail account, Yahoo does not have POP access. However, there is a free program called YPOPs! which allows you to use Outlook Express to access your Yahoo Mail email. You can get YPOPs! at the link below:\n\nhttp://www.ypopsemail.com/\n\n\nIf you do pay for your Yahoo Mail account, try going to the websites below:\n\nhttp://help.yahoo.com/help/us/mail/pop/index.html (scroll down to ‘POP3 Client Errors’)\nhttp://support.microsoft.com/kb/302339/ (Microsoft’s page on the error--probably won’t help)

Try this..out !!!\n\nYou can use Outlook with your Yahoo! Mail e-mail account as long as you use a paid subscription Yahoo! Mail account that includes POP3 access and forwarding. Free Web browser-based Yahoo! Mail accounts cannot be accessed in Outlook.\n\nYou can receive your Yahoo! Mail e-mail messages by using Outlook from most places with an Internet connection. Yahoo! Mail provides you access to an authenticated SMTP server — allowing you to send e-mail messages using Outlook from your Yahoo! Mail account when you use another Internet service, such as at your office or when traveling.\n\nNote If you want information about SBC Yahoo! e-mail accounts that are included with your Internet service provider (ISP) (ISP: A business that provides access to the Internet for such things as electronic mail, chat rooms, or use of the World Wide Web. Some ISPs are multinational, offering access in many locations, while others are limited to a specific region.) account, this article does not apply. See Outlook Help for configuring SBC Yahoo! e-mail accounts.\n\nDo one of the following:\n\nAdd your Yahoo! Mail e-mail account\n\nOn the Tools menu, click E-mail Accounts. \nClick Add a new e-mail account, and then click Next. \nClick POP3, and then click Next. \nUnder User Information, do the following:\nIn the Your Name box, type your full name the way that you want it to appear to other people. \nIn the E-mail Address box, type your e-mail user name, followed by @yahoo.com. \nUnder Server Information, do the following:\n\nIn the Incoming mail server (POP3) box, type \npop.mail.yahoo.com. \n\nIn the Outgoing mail server (SMTP) box, type \nsmtp.mail.yahoo.net. \n\nUnder Logon Information, do the following:\nIn the User Name box, type your user name. Do not include @yahoo.com. \nIn the Password box, type your password. \nSelect the Remember password check box.\nNote You have the option to have Outlook remember your password by typing it in the Password box and selecting the Remember password check box. Having Outlook remember your password means that you won't have to type your password each time you access the account; however, it also means that the account is vulnerable to anyone who has access to your computer. Use strong passwords that combine upper- and lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols. Weak passwords don't mix these elements. Strong password: Y6dh!et5. Weak password: House27. Use a strong password that you can remember so that you don't have to write it down.\n\nTo verify that your account is working, click Test Account Settings. If there is missing or incorrect information, such as your password, you will be prompted to supply or correct it. Make sure your computer is connected to the Internet. \nClick More Settings. \nOn the General tab, under Mail Account, type Yahoo! Mail. \nClick the Outgoing Server tab, and then select the My outgoing server (SMTP) requires authentication check box. \nClick Use same settings as my incoming mail server, and then click OK. \nClick Next, and then click Finish. \nNotes\n\nDo not select the Log on using Secure Password Authentication (SPA) check box. \nUnless specified by Yahoo! Mail, all server and address entries are typed in lowercase letters. \nRemove your Yahoo! Mail e-mail account\n\n\n\nTry this... need more check out the link... below:

Below is a document explaining how to setup Outlook Express.\n\nAs for the SMTP numbers, that all depends on what mail server you are going to use. Usually smtp.mailservername.com or mail.mailservername.com

You cannot set up Yahoo with outlook unless you have the paid account. Outlook does not need an IP address, it needs POP3 and SMTP server information if you do have a paid account.

How do I POP my mail? \nThe ability to access Yahoo! Mail via a POP3 email client (such as Outlook or Outlook Express) is only available to customers of our premium Yahoo! Mail Plus service. \nIf you have not purchased the Yahoo! Mail Plus service, you will be unable to retrieve messages via an email client. To determine whether or not you have purchased this service, please visit the My Services page. \n\nFor Outlook clients

POP3 means Post Office Protocol\nSMTP means Simple Mail Transfer Protocol\nBoth POP3 and SMTP addresses are usually provided by the ISP(Internet Service Providers). \n\nOtherwise, if you want to download your yahoo, gmail, inbox and like other mails you can configure according to their guidelines. For example if you want to configure your yahoo! mail plus account to your Outlook Express... below is the procedure....\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\nFrom the Tools menu, choose "Accounts." \nSelect the "Mail" tab. \nClick the "Add" button. \nFrom the Add menu, click "Mail." \nIn the text box labeled Display Name, type your name and click "Next." \nIn the Email Address box, type your Yahoo! Mail address (be sure to include "@yahoo.com") and click "Next." \nUnder "My incoming mail server is a..." select "POP3." \nType "pop.mail.yahoo.com" in the Incoming Mail (POP3, IMAP, or HTTP) Server box. \nType "smtp.mail.yahoo.com" in the Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server box. \nClick "Next." \nIn the Account Name box, type your Yahoo! Mail ID (your email address without the "@yahoo.com"). \nIn the Password box, type your Yahoo! Mail password. \nIf you want Outlook Express to remember your password, check the "Remember password" box. \nDo not check the boxes labeled "Log on using Secure..." \nClick "Next." \nClick "Finish."\nImportant: The Yahoo! Mail SMTP server now requires authentication. To turn this setting on: \n\nFrom the Tools menu, choose "Accounts." \nSelect the "Mail" tab. \nDouble-click the account labeled "pop.mail.yahoo.com." \nSelect the "Servers" tab. \nCheck the box next to "My Server Requires Authentication." \nClick "OK." \nTo control deletion of messages from the Yahoo! Mail Server: \n\nFrom the Tools menu, choose "Accounts." \nSelect the "Mail" tab. \nDouble-click the account labeled "pop.mail.yahoo.com." \nSelect the "Advanced" tab. \nIn 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. \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\nFrom the "Tools" menu, select "Accounts" \nSelect your Yahoo! POP account and click on the "Properties" button \nClick on the "Advanced" tab \nNext to "Outgoing server (SMTP), change port 25 to 587 \nClick "Apply", then click "OK" and "Close" \n-------------------------------------------

You have to have a paid account with Yahoo. You can't access your Yahoo address from POP3 clients with the free version at all. There's no way around this.

Dewcoons answer is not only correct, but detailed, and the definitive answer to your question.\n\nTo use Outlook Express to back up your email you would:\n 1) subscribe to Yahoo Plus for about $20 / year\n 2) configure Outlook express to use the Yahoo mail servers for send (SMTP) functionality and receive (POP) functionality. \n\nThere are configuration instructions in Yahoo Mail for Outlook Express and other clients with more detail, under "Help" when logged into mail.\n\nPersonally I do exactly what you're asking about and find the $20/yr fee a good value, especially if you like to back up your data. If you do that you should also look at options to synchronize your Outlook Express and Yahoo Mail address books.\n\nGood luck!

Ivy, there are 2 totally different ways of accessing email: one is "Pop3", the other is "web-based".\n\nYahoo mail is web-based (as are hotmail and gmail, etc). This means you can be logged on to any computer anywhere, and as long as you sign in to YOUR Yahoo account then you can use it.\n\nBut the OTHER type of mail, POP3, is based on YOUR internet connection - and comes via your ISP (internet service provider).\nTHIS sort of email needs an email program like Outlook Express (or IncrediMail, Thunderbird, etc) to process it. (And does NOT need your web browser like Yahoo does!)\n\nI suggest perhaps you ask your ISP what email address THEY have allocated for you, then they'll also tell you their "POP3" and "SMTP" settings to set up in your Outlook Express.\n\nBut you can't use O.E. to do your web-based (i.e. Yahoo) mail - just as you cannot access your Pop3 mail via your Yahoo account.\n\nYou should decide WHICH you want - or no reason why you can't use both types, each with their own individual email address, AND each with their own unique way of accessing.\n\nIs your head spinning ? <lol>.\nGee, I sure hope I've answered the question I think you were asking ! ;-)
