When I send out email is it POP3?

What is the POP3 Server for the Yahoo.com email? I can send emails from MS Outlook but not receive them.?

• When I was previously using Prodigy.Net, I knew their POP 3 Server name and set up my MS Outlook to send and receive my Prodigy.Net emails. Now that Prodigy.Net has been swallowed up by Yahoo and disappeared, I need the same info from Yahoo. Can anyone help?

• 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 SSL 995      UK - pop.mail.yahoo.co.uk SSL 995      AU and NZ - pop.mail.yahoo.com.au SSL 995 Outgoing (smtp)      US - plus.smtp.mail.yahoo.com 465 TLS      UK - smtp.mail.yahoo.co.uk SSL 465 TLS      AU and NZ - smtp.mail.yahoo.com.au SSL 465 TLS 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 ₪
