How to setup yahoo mail in outlook 2010?

How To Configure Yahoo Mail To Be Read/Sent From Outlook 2010?

  • I have two standard Yahoo mail accounts in addition to email accounts attached to my own domains. What I’m trying to do is to set up all these accounts in Outlook 2010 so that I can view them all in the one place. This would make life a lot easier. Unfortunately I cannot get the Yahoo mail to co-operate! Before going any further I’ve read reports that you need Yahoo Plus, a paid version of Yahoo Mail in order to use Yahoo Mail this way. I’ve also read conflicting reports. Which is correct? Here’s what I’ve used for my settings. My Name: Kevin My email address kevin at yahoo.co.uk (not real address to avoid spam) Server Info Account Type pop3 incoming mail server: pop.mail.yahoo.co.uk outgoing mail server: smtp.mail.yahoo.co.uk I’ve selected ‘remember password.’ I have not selected ‘Login using SPA’ In addition under "More Settings – Outgoing Server " I’ve selected ‘My outgoing server (SMTP) requires authentication’ and ‘Use same settings as my incoming mail server.’ When I test the account settings the ‘test account settings’ box pops up followed immediately with another box named ‘Internet E-mail – kevin at yahoo.co.uk’ with the server pop.mail.yahoo.co.uk, username ‘kevin’ password ‘password’ Click OK and it will tell me that logon to incoming mail server has failed but that the test email has completed successfully. If I go directly to Yahoo I can read the test email in my account. Any suggestions. Kevin

  • Answer:

    It seems as though the restrictions on yahoo.com have now spread to the other yahoo companies such as yahoo.co.uk Below is relevant to yahoo.com but perhaps you can adapt it to be relevant to .co.uk POP3 will not work unless you upgrade to the PAID version - Yahoo Mail Plus, but IMAP seems to be enabled for the FREE Yahoo now. * Incoming Server - imap.mail.yahoo.com * Outgoing Server - smtp.mail.yahoo.com * Incoming Port - 993 (requires SSL) * Outgoing Port - 465 (requires SSL/TLS) * Username: full email address (for example, [email protected] or [email protected]) * Password: the password you login to Yahoo! with.

I have outlook and had the same questions. It turns out you do need yahoopluss to work with outlook. So - your choices are to pay the 10 bucks it so a year or to go with another free email company (not yahoo) that does work with yahoo.
