• Im trying to set up my outlook on my computer to use yahoo or hotmail to send my e-mails. I just want to send my emails from outlook and not have to go to the sights to send them. Is there a pop3 address i need to enter for outgoing mail?

• Answer:

  BOTH will work, Major Tom is WRONG! If you want to use Outlook, Outlook Express, Thunderbird or other third party email clients to view your email you have 2 options. Subscribe to mail plus: http://billing.mail.yahoo.com/bm/Upgrades or download and install YPOPS http://ypopsemail.com/ then follow the directions for your version of outlook here, http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/mail/original/mailplus/pop/pop-35.html If you have trouble with set up, check the YPOPS installation page for alternate set up instructions. http://dbeusee.home.comcast.net/ Click on YPOPS link on the left. Then Click on Configuring email clients towards the bottom. Choose the appropriate link for your mail client. I currently utilize version 2.0.0.4 of Thunderbird and version 0.8.3 of YPOPS (there is a more recent version of YPOPS that you need if you are Yahoo Beta Mail) and have no problems. Thumbs up are always appreciated if I have truly helped you!! DO NOT believe those who say it won't work. ************ Hotmail with outlookk/outlook express Much like Yahoo, hotmail does not allow access via a pop3 account. There is a way around this, just like with Yahoo. First you will need to download and install a program called FREEPOPS. http://www.freepops.org/en/ (make sure you get the latest version) Then follow the directions for setting it up for your hotmail account fromthis webpage. http://email.about.com/od/outlookexpresstips/qt/et061405.htm (scroll down to the middle of the page.)
