Can I use MS Outlook to check my Yahoo mail?

Why i am not download my yahoo mail via MS Outlook? (I want to Use my Outlook to download my yahoo mail?

  • Answer:

    There are 2 ways to get Yahoo Mail into your Outlook Express using the POP3 Access (Post Office Protocol) 1.) Either you subscribe for the Same using Yahoo! Mail Plus as has already been Highlighted OR 2.) You use some sort of Interface that is able to connect to Yahoo Mail and also to Outlook express (Or Other Clients Like Lotus Notes) and helps you transfer data. One such Client is YPOPs which provides a POP3 server interface to your outlook express or Lotus notes client on one end and on the other provide a HTTP Browser interface for Yahoo Mail. This is perfectly legal as has been put up on their website. Please check out the same at http://www.ypopsemail.com 1.) Keeping a mail file on your comp at home is a much better option than keeping the same on the Yahoo servers as you never know when Yahoo might stop the free mail service. 2.) Also the space available on yahoo servers is limited but at home you can fill up an entire hard drive with mails. 3.) Also the Mail server on Yahoo can be broken into or someone might just break into your account, you can at least keep all the data safe if it is on a personal computer.

I'm going the other way. Every time you have a computer problem, you will likely lose your mail if you store it at home. Yahoo is safer.

to use your outlook for your email you will have to set up your emails settings to use this. go to account and set up your email page to send you all your email from yahoo and any other mail you want to use. hope that this helps

Yahoo no longer allows you to download the mail to your PC for free using MS outlook or Outlook Express. if you pay something extra then you will be able to download it. Best thing is try to forward all your mail to an email address that allows you to download mail to OE. Open an account at www.gmail.com
