How to set up Apple Mail for Yahoo?

How do I set up my Apple mail to retrieve emails on my Yahoo! Mail account?

  • ...it would be great if the answer did not include using the MacFree application, as I have tried that and it didn't work.

  • 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 free in the UK 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) - plus.pop.mail.yahoo.com Outgoing (smtp) - plus.smtp.mail.yahoo.com As an alternative there is an add on called YPOPS that you can download and try. ₪ ɦəlʞɹɐq ₪
