  • I cant seem to find out how to set my computer to use yahoo to email a posting like from craigslist, it automatically opens outlook express and i want it to use my yahoo mail. HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Answer:

    To setup yahoo email as your default mail using Internet Explorer. * Download and install yahoo messenger. * Click “tools”>“Internet Options”>”programs tab” in the menu. * Make sure yahoo mail is selected under e-mail. * Click OK. yahoo mail as default using IE is not compatible when using windows vista. To setup yahoo email as your default mail using Firefox 3 (Yahoo now recommend you use this browser) and it will work with Vista. * Download and install firefox 3 http://downloads.yahoo.com/?p=win * After installation and when you have Firefox 3 up and running, click "tools", then "options". * In the options window that pops up, click the applications tab. * Scroll down to “mailto” and change to “use yahoo mail” * Finally click “OK”.
