Just got yahoo email address, how do i get the server settings so i can configure to outlook express? regards?

You have to pay for Yahoo! Mail Plus.





If you are a Mail Plus user, then follow the directions outlined below:


Outlook Express allows you to add a new email account to your existing profile. This means you do not have to replace your current settings in order to send and receive Yahoo! Mail messages. Here's how:





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."

POP3 access is no more offered in free yahoo mail accounts
Reply:If it is a paid account then go to "options" "email preferences" "pop3 forwarding"...in there they explain it step by step.





Good Luck





If you don't have a paid account then you can't unless you use a program I have seen in here but seems dangerous.
Reply:I clicked on tools at the top of the page, then internet options in the window that appeared. Click on the program tab then it should give you the option in a box next to email. It worked for me.
