How do I get yahoo to work with mozilla thunderbird?

How do I add an account to Thunderbird?

  • I have done this before- I have three e-mail accounts in thunderbird BUT it will not create an account with Rocketmail.com It says the username or password is wrong but I know it is notas I can send and receive e-mail with the account via the yahoo mail service I think it may need the smpt or out /in server tweeking but so far I cannot get it to work and no response from Yahoo or Mozilla

  • Answer:

    Free accounts from ymail, rocketmail, or yahoomail will not work in email client programs such as Thunderbird or Outlook. You need to upgrade to the paid version - Yahoo Mail Plus and use these settings: Incoming mail server settings POP server: pop.mail.yahoo.com Use SSL Port: 995 Outgoing mail server (SMTP) settings SMTP server: smtp.mail.yahoo.com Use SSL Port: 465 Use authentication Account Name/Login Name: Your Yahoo! Mail ID (your email address without the "@domain.com", for example, “jo.bloggs”) Email Address: Your Yahoo! Mail address (for example, [email protected]) Password: Your Yahoo! Mail password
