How do I know what settings(POP3,IMAP,or HTTP) my e-Mail "incoming"server uses? Also "Outgoing" (STMP) server?

I just moved 2 the country and only have dial-up at the present time?? I am "reconfiguring" a computer I got from my older brother!!?? I'm on the "Internet Connection Wizard" and need to find out what my incoming & outgoing mail server info is to continue....I use Yahoo! obviously or I wouldn't have found this; Yahoo! Answers page...."Learning All The Time" (Anybody remember Benny Hill?!?!) Any help would be great....Thanks from ledstaff65 !!
Answer:

For yahoo mail you need upgrade to yahoo mail plus (@ $19.99 per year).to get the full pop3 service for access to Outlook,Incredimail, Thunderbird and others. For more info on setting up your pop3 account see the link below. http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/mail/classic/mailplus/pop/pop-35.html * Incoming Mail Server (POP3): plus.pop.mail.yahoo.com Use SSL, port: 995 * Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP): plus.smtp.mail.yahoo.com Use SSL, port: 465, use authentication. If you have “yahoo.co.uk” address some users can get free pop forwarding see below. Click “options” (top right) on your mail page>mail options>pop and forwarding> Set up or edit pop & forwarding>type in the address you want to forward to and click save. * Incoming mail server (POP3): pop.mail.yahoo.co.uk Use SSL, port: 995 * Outgoing mail server (SMTP): smpt.mail.yahoo.co.uk Use SSL, port: 465. Note: In order to be able to send emails from outlook and others through/to yahoo (pop3) you need to pay for a yahoo mail plus account. @ £11.99 per year.
