To use Yahoo mail on Outlook or another email client, you either need to subsribe to the Yahoo mail plus version, or get a program like Ypops.


Ypops can be downloaded from http://ypopsemail.com/ They have instructions based on your version of outlook as well. Configuration for it can be a little tricky though.

If you were thinking about the paid version, setup instructions and a link to upgrade can be found here: http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/mail/classic/mailplus/pop/pop-08.html

Please leave feedback if you found this review helpful. Thanks!

Outlook is a program that manages e-mail addresses. These are two separate entities and are not the same thing. Yahoo is a free web-mail service. You do not have to pay for a yahoo email address, and you can import that address into outlook.
For example you would be able to manage several email addresses in your outlook, say you had one from gmail, and two from yahoo. You would be able to import all 3 into your outlook program.
Hope this helps!

How can I connect my Yahoo email account with Windows Outlook 2003?

This depends on whether or not you pay for your Yahoo email account. Yahoo has restricted the POP3 downloading of emails from free accounts. If you pay for your email account, you can download mail by going into the email options on the website, and enabling POP3 email access, and then they provide you with the instructions to download your mail with Outlook 2003. Otherwise, you have to use the website to get your mail.

You can't check yahoo mail through a regular email client. Yahoo has that feature blocked unless you pay for their advanced email program. If you go to google and type in the following, there is a program that will do it for you. I open 4 yahoo accounts in my outlook email.
Type in google: open yahoo mail in outlook

How to Synchronise yahoo mail in MS Outlook 2003

The problem is that in order to use Yahoo email on a Outlook, POP3 or HTTP, Yahoo asks you to get Yahoo Mail Plus. They are forcing you to pay for 19.99 a year to be allowed a POP3 account to use for your Outlook 2003 and mail forwarding.

I've tried several methods, even trying HTTP: mail.yahoo.com

Ive even used software that said it would allow this. But no luck.

POP3 is only provided and activated by YAHOO when you pay for the yearly subcription.

Sorry. Thats really the only solution there is to this because yahoo controls their services to every user.

I hope this helps.

Configration

if it's just a straight yahoo account, you have to pay for service. Hotmail uses an HTTP method where they will allow you to use outlook (Microsoft of course!) Unfortunately, Yahoo doesn't do this except allow POP3 and even that is paid for.
