  HOW TO GET YAHOO E-MAIL TO WORK IN AN EMAIL CLIENT Before you set up your email client, you have to go to yahoo account and activate your pop access & forwarding, to do this you click on options in your email account. This opens new page middle column click on pops access & forwarding. On this page it should already be set for you so just click on save. You then get new page saying you are successful, and then you go to your email client and enter info below Your pop accessing settings To set up your account with your email Click on tools, click on accounts, when box appears click on add. Then you follow the account wizard, filling your details till you get to pops and smtp, the settings are below for yahoo These are the settings for yahoo.co.uk Incoming mail server (pop3) pop.mail.yahoo.co.uk Outgoing mail server (SMTP) smtp.mail.yahoo.co.uk default ports are pop3—100, SMTP---25, to stop spam some IP providers will block port 25 , so if you are having trouble when sending your mail you will have to change from port 25 to 587,, to change this it varies in different email clients (click on accounts and then properties) and you should find you’re your port setting there. Another thing to watch out for, if your emails are not received or sent out. Turn off your fire wall and send an email to your self from another account, if you then receive the emails, switch your fire wall back on and do the same sent some emails. If they are not received then you will have to configure your fire wall to accept your emails and let them out, Hope this is of use to you, if you have problem please feel free to message me for more info Once your are set up, your mail will come to your client, if you do not open it, you should be able to access it in your yahoo account, and you will be able to sent mail as well. If you reply from your email client, the email will be from which ever the email account is set as default in you email client Alec
