What is the outgoing e-mail server (SMTP) name?

How do I know what my POP3 or IMAP server and the outgoing email SMTP name?

• Answer:

  In order to use a separate email program, such as Outlook, Outlook Express, Windows Mail, or Thunderbird, with Yahoo Mail you need POP3. It is also needed when using any program or right clicking on a file to directly send email. It is free in the UK, AU, and NZ but in the US you must pay for Yahoo Mail Plus. It is also required when you try to transfer the mail using smtp or pop3 to another online email. When you do you can set the servers as follows: Incoming (pop3)      US - plus.pop.mail.yahoo.com           Use SSL           Port 995      UK - pop.mail.yahoo.co.uk           Use SSL           Port 995      AU and NZ - pop.mail.yahoo.com.au           Use SSL           Port 995 Outgoing (smtp)      US - plus.smtp.mail.yahoo.com           Use TLS           Port 465      UK - smtp.mail.yahoo.co.uk           Use SSL and TLS           Port 465      AU and NZ - smtp.mail.yahoo.com.au           Use SSL and TLS           Port 465 NOTE: The same servers are used for ymail and rocketmail. Use the entire email address as the Yahoo ID. You can also look at the program Ypops. I have no recommendation for or against. ₪ ʎəɿʞɹɐq ₪
