Tips


Microsoft Outlook Express
Yahoo! Mail users can read their email in Outlook Express by
subscribing to the Yahoo! Mail Plus service. This service allows you to use
Outlook Express or another POP3 client to access and manage your Yahoo! Mail
messages.
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."
Important: The Yahoo! Mail SMTP server now requires
authentication. To turn this setting on:

1.. From the Tools menu, choose "Accounts."
2.. Select the "Mail" tab.
3.. Double-click the account labeled "pop.mail.yahoo.com."
4.. Select the "Servers" tab.
5.. Check the box next to "My Server Requires Authentication."
6.. Click "OK."
To control deletion of messages from the Yahoo! Mail Server:

1.. From the Tools menu, choose "Accounts."
2.. Select the "Mail" tab.
3.. Double-click the account labeled "pop.mail.yahoo.com."
4.. Select the "Advanced" tab.
5.. In the Delivery section at the bottom of the window, check
"Leave a copy of messages on server" if you want to save your Yahoo! Mail
messages on the Yahoo! Mail server as well as on your local computer. Do not
check this box if you want your messages to be deleted from the Yahoo! Mail
server once you have received them in Outlook Express.
