How many e-mail boxes are allowed in Outlook 2003?

Guest

I have four different e-mail accounts (verizon and yahoo) and want them all
to feed into MS Outlook 2003. So far I have successfully set up 3 of the 4
accounts but can not confirm the fourth email set up.

Any suggestions?
THanks, EG

A hell of a lot more than just 4.

Describe the symptoms. Are they all POP accounts? Don't confuse "folder
set" with "account". All POP accounts will share a single folder set (i.e.,
one Inbox, one Outbox, etc.).

You said and I quote "A hell of a lot more than just 4" Then, How do you set
them up because after the 3 that I entered, the set up that I have for the
fourth (exactly the same that I set up the others) is not recognized. The
system keep asking me for the passcode. I am using the correct one but I get
an error message telling me that It cannot download my messages.

They are all POP accounts and No I don't confuse them with folder set. I am
talking about individual e-mail accounts. I have gone through the same steps
to set up the last yahoo account and hit test e-mail. Outlook attempts to
send/recieve, however it only returns an error message.

I setup 2 email from Verizon fine. Then, I setup one Yahoo email with no
problem. On the second Yahoo email that I set up (the same way as the other)
I get a box that keep asking me for my passcode. I entered it just right,
but for unknown reason, the system will not accept it. I went ahead and
changed my passcode several time hoping for a good connection, but nothing
worked.

Is the fourth a Yahoo account? If so do you have a paid-for yahoo account or
a yahoo uk account? If not, then you can't set up a Yahoo account in
Outlook....

is this a 'paid' account as yahoo doesn't support pop3 on free accts in the
yahoo.com address space.

I don't understand? What do you mean a Yahoo paid account? Yes, I have 2
yahoo account, none are paid for. I can access both of them through Explorer
without any problems so why is it that I cannot have them both on Outlook? By
the way, I am a US resident

Yahoo.com does NOT allow you POP email function unless you have a PAID for
account....

Did you read Gordon's reply about paid Yahoo accounts?

You can have as many as you want and pay nothing.
I can access both of them through Explorer

Of course you can. Btw, it's Internet Explorer, not Explorer.
without any problems so why is it that I cannot have them both on Outlook?

Because Yahoo won't let you do that without paying.

Cool but you still have to pay in order to access your Yahoo mail through
POP3 :)
