Here are the basic server settings for Yahoo! Mail:
Incoming Mail (POP3) Server:pop.mail.yahoo.comOutgoing Mail (SMTP) Server:smtp.mail.yahoo.com Account Name/Login Name:your Yahoo! Mail name (your address without the "@yahoo.com") Email address:your Yahoo! Mail address (i.e., [email protected]) Password: your Yahoo! Mail password
Some ISPs don't allow their users to send messages with other companies' SMTP outgoing mail servers. If you've set the "Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server" field in Yahoo! Mail to smtp.mail.yahoo.com and find that you can receive but can't send messages, you may have to use your ISP server's address, rather than Yahoo!'s. Please contact your ISP for the SMTP server address to enter. If this is not what you needed to know, check out our Online Help Desk <../index.html>.

POP3 AccessIn order to use an email client to send and receive Yahoo! Mail messages, you must designate a new incoming (POP) mail server and a new outgoing (SMTP) mail server. If you can't add new POP or SMTP servers, you'll need to change your current server settings. Before you change anything, write down your current settings -- you may need to revert to your original settings later if you decide to send and receive messages from your other email addresses.

Mail name (your address without the "@yahoo.com") Email address:your Yahoo! Mail address (i.e., [email protected]) Password: your Yahoo!
