What do IMAP, POP3 and SMTP mean?

Where do i find pop3, imap, smtp information at?

  • i'm trying to find pop3, imap, and smtp information, and have no clue where to look

  • Answer:

    I'm assuming your server is yahoo. For yahoo mail you need upgrade to yahoo mail plus to get the full pop3 service for access to outlook,incredimail, thunderbird and others. For more info see the link below. http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/mail/original/mailplus/pop/pop-35.html And use the yahoo mail servers address (for yahoo.com address) * 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 And for yahoo mail servers address (for yahoo.co.uk address) * 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: Some UK users can get free pop3 it will depend on if your internet service provider has an arrangement with yahoo, you need to check with your isp first.

I have and still use a free account within currently Windows Mail, just don’t forget to enable POP Forwarding within Options/Mail options when in your account on the web (in IE or Firefox).
