Configuring External (POP) Mail Accounts in Yahoo! Mail
You can configure Yahoo! Mail to send all your email from one place. You can also retrieve email from your POP email accounts.
An account with POP access is one that you are able to access through an external email client such as Outlook, Eudora, or Netscape Mail. Follow the instructions below to add settings for another email account. Yahoo! Mail can store settings for up to 5 different accounts at one time.
To add an account using the setup wizard:
Click the "Mail Options" link on the top-right side of the screen, and then choose "Mail Addresses" located under the Management column.
Click the "Add" button on the Mail Accounts page.
Enter an account name -- for example, Work, School, etc. -- and click "Continue."
Enter your (POP) mail server name (only POP mail servers are supported at this time).
Enter your user name and password. Note: The user name is different than your email address. Typically it is the text in your email address before the "@" symbol. Your password is whatever you use to access your external mail account and not necessarily your Yahoo! password.
Select an indicator color to mark messages received from this account.
Click the "Setup Mail Server" button.
You are required to verify that you own this account. Clicking the "Send Verification" button will send the verification letter to the email address you are adding. Once you receive the verification letter, enter the confirmation code along with your Yahoo! password to the following page. Upon verification, your new account will be added.
Now that you've added another account to send mail from, how do you use it?
On the Compose screen, you will now have a "From" pull-down menu located above the "To:" field. Choose an address that you wish to mail from by selecting it from the pull-down menu.
If you prefer to send from one address more often than another, you can set an address as default by doing the following:
From the Mail Accounts page, click once on the address you would like set as your default address.
In the account information display to the right, click the "Make Default" link.
Yahoo! Mail will retrieve messages from your external (POP) mail accounts only when you request it.
Currently, you can't configure Yahoo! Mail to retrieve messages from a web-based email account such as a RocketMail or another Yahoo! Mail account that hasn't been set up for POP access. However, you can add an existing Yahoo! Mail account to your Mail Accounts list to send from.
Note: Yahoo! Mail Customer Care doesn't know and can't provide you with the server name, port number, user name, or password for your external mail account. For assistance tracking down this information, contact your ISP or network administrator
