How to configure outlook 2007 for Yahoo mail?

How do I configure Outlook 2007 to get my yahoo mail?

  • Answer:

    If you want to use Outlook, Outlook Express, Thunderbird or other third party email clients to view your email you have 2 options. Subscribe to mail plus: http://billing.mail.yahoo.com/bm/Upgrades or download and install YPOPS http://ypopsemail.com/ then follow the directions for your version of outlook here, http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/mail/original/mailplus/pop/pop-35.html If you have trouble with set up, check the YPOPS installation page for alternate set up instructions. http://dbeusee.home.comcast.net/ Click on YPOPS link on the left. Then Click on Configuring email clients towards the bottom. Choose the appropriate link for your mail client. I currently utilize version 2.0.0.4 of Thunderbird and version 0.8.3 of YPOPS (there is a more recent version of YPOPS that you need if you are Yahoo Beta Mail) and have no problems. Thumbs up are always appreciated if I have truly helped you!!

If you have mail plus then you can send and receive e-mails with an e-mail client. Sadly, american yahoo accounts (and the asian yahoo.com one) is a type of yahoo account which can not be used in outlook only if you have paid membership. I will tell you how to configure outlook but i am afraid you can only retrieve your mails but nothing more (if you are a free member). There is a section at mail options called pop3 and mail forwarding, go in there and chose the option you want (pop3, in case of outlook and other mail clients), check the small box/opt in. Then open the link (view pop3 settings) they have a better description than mine :) Also, i suggest you to set up a foreign account to use outlook with yahoo. For example i have a german yahoo account and i can use it with any e-mail clients :) You can chose the language later (switch from german to english) You can e-mail me here if you need any help!
