How do I add a Yahoo email account via POP3 or IMAP mail server?

In order to use a separate email program, such as Outlook, Outlook Express, Windows Mail, or Thunderbird, with Yahoo Mail you need POP3. It is also needed when using any program or right clicking on a file to directly send email. It is free in the UK, AU, and NZ but in the US you must pay for Yahoo Mail Plus. It is also required when you try to transfer the mail using smtp or pop3 to another online email. When you do you can set the servers as follows: Incoming (pop3) US - plus.pop.mail.yahoo.com SSL 995 UK - pop.mail.yahoo.co.uk SSL 995 AU and NZ - pop.mail.yahoo.com.au SSL 995 Outgoing (smtp) US - plus.smtp.mail.yahoo.com 465 TLS UK - smpt.mail.yahoo.co.uk SSL 465 TLS AU and NZ - smpt.mail.yahoo.com.au SSL 465 TLS NOTE: The same servers are used for ymail and rocketmail. Use the entire email address as the Yahoo ID. You can also look at the program Ypops. I have no recommendation for or against. ₪ ɦəlʞɹɐq ₪
