How to use yahoo mail in account in outlook office?

I would like to use my yahoo account to send e-mail from my microsoft office outlook.How do Ido this?

  • Answer:

    In order to use a separate email program, such as Outlook, Outlook Express, Windows Mail, or Thunderbird (see bolow), 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. There is an add on for Thunderbird that will allow many web email accounts including Yahoo without the need for POP3. Go to http://webmail.mozdev.org/ NOTE: I have not been able to get this to work. Maybe it will not work with Beta yet. If you are running Thunderbird 3 and Yahoo Beta Mail and it works, please contact me. ₪ ʎəɿʞɹɐq ₪ Wednesday, December 01, 2010
