How do I set up my Yahoo email on Outlook 2007?

Can I set up my Outlook 2007 to send emails using my yahoo email account?

• I have set up my Outlook 2007 to receive emails from my Yahoo.com.au address but I can't seem to get it to send emails using that address. This is important as this is the address I want my recipients to respond to. do I have to convert to Mail Plus or install the ypopsemail application first or have I just missed something in my set up?

• Answer:

  If you're using the FREE Yahoo Mail, you may need to upgrade to the PAID version - Yahoo Mail Plus to get POP3 access. Then use the following info to set up: Incoming mail server settings * POP server: plus.pop.mail.yahoo.com * Use SSL * Port: 995 Outgoing mail server (SMTP) settings * SMTP server: plus.smtp.mail.yahoo.com * Use SSL * Port: 465 * Use authentication * Account Name/Login Name: Your Yahoo! Mail ID (your email address without the "@yahoo.com", for example, “testing80”) * Email Address: Your Yahoo! Mail address (for example, [email protected]) * Password: Your Yahoo! Mail password
