How to set up my Yahoo email to Microsoft Outlook?

How do I set up Microsoft Outlook to get Email from Yahoo and other similar servers?

  • I want to use Outlook to check E-Mail from several servers at once, and I don't know how to set it up.

  • Answer:

    Here's how to "POP" mail from Yahoo! Mail Plus into your Outlook Express: 1. From the Tools menu, choose "Accounts." 2. Select the "Mail" tab. 3. Click the "Add" button. 4. From the Add menu, click "Mail." 5. In the text box labeled Display Name, type your name and click "Next." 6. In the Email Address box, type your Yahoo! Mail address (be sure to include "@yahoo.com") and click "Next." 7. Under "My incoming mail server is a…" select "POP3." 8. Type "pop.mail.yahoo.com" in the Incoming Mail (POP3, IMAP, or HTTP) Server box. 9. Type "smtp.mail.yahoo.com" in the Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server box. 10. Click "Next." 11. In the Account Name box, type your Yahoo! Mail ID (your email address without the "@yahoo.com"). 12. In the Password box, type your Yahoo! Mail password. 13. If you want Outlook Express to remember your password, check the "Remember password" box. 14. Do not check the boxes labeled "Log on using Secure…" 15. Click "Next." 16. Click "Finish." 17. Select 'pop.mail.yahoo.com' under 'Account,' and click 'Properties.' 18. Click the “Servers” tab. 19. Under “Outgoing Mail Server” check the box next to “My server requires authentication” 20. Click the 'Advanced' tab. 21. Under “Outgoing mail Server (SMTP)”, check the box next to “This server requires a secure connection (SSL). Enter port number “465” in the “Outgoing mail (SMTP)” field. 22. Under “Incoming mail (POP3)”, check the box next to “This server requires a secure connection (SSL)". The port number in the “Incoming mail (POP3)" field should automatically change from 110 to 995. If it doesn’t, make sure the port number is set to 995.

Want to use another email program to send and receive Yahoo! Mail messages? If so, you'll be asked to designate a new incoming (POP3) mail server and a new outgoing (SMTP) mail server. Here are the basic server settings for Yahoo! Mail: Incoming Mail (POP3) Server: pop.mail.yahoo.com (Use SSL, port: 995) Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server: 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") Email Address: Your Yahoo! Mail address (e.g., [email protected]) Password: Your Yahoo! Mail password If you can't add new POP or SMTP servers, you'll need to change your current server settings to access your Yahoo! Mail Plus account. Write down your current settings first—you might need to revert to them later if you decide to send and receive messages from your other email addresses. Your other email program will give you the option of either deleting your Yahoo! messages from the Yahoo! server after downloading them, or leaving them on the Yahoo! server so you can see them online in your Yahoo! account, too.
