How can I configure my outlook to get mails from yahoo and gmail?
What are their mail server addreses?
 
Check Yahoo! and gmail help for assistance.

Did you pay for Yahoo so you get access to the POP3 and SMTP servers (or
are you using a Yahoo domain that still offers them for free)? Can't do
a search through Yahoo's own help, like finding
http://help.yahoo.com/help/us/mail/pop/pop-06.html? If you don't want
to pay Yahoo for their premium service to get POP3 access, use YahooPOPs
instead (http://yahoopops.sourceforge.net/). I would suggest using the
older version 0.5 since the latest 0.6 version has problems, like
https:// not working and they're still experimenting on getting it to
work as a transparent proxy.

Since Gmail accounts can only be obtained via invites, did the invite
not provide a link to create an account and which includes links to help
that tell you how to access Gmail's POP3 and SMTP servers? Can't do a
Google search, huh, like finding
