Know the mail settings for Yahoo!

 If you want to manually configure Yahoo mail server settings then it is very important to know the specifications of incoming server, outgoing server, and POP. If you know it then setting up Yahoo will be like a cakewalk for you.

IMAP is a great way to connect your Yahoo Mail account to a desktop mail client or mobile app. It allows two-way syncing which means that everything you do is replicated in your Yahoo Mail account no matter where or how you access it.


Some people also prefer to use POP therefore we will be sharing all the information for your convenience. Post Office Protocol (POP) is an older protocol that duplicates emails from the email server to the app. Actions performed in the app have no effect on the emails on the email server.

As it is an older protocol, it only downloads email from the server and it provides limited access as well. If you will take any action on the mails in the app it will not reflect on the server.

Outlook will try to configure your account automatically. Sometimes you are required to enter the full email address into the username field. If you want Outlook to automatically enter your email password, make sure that the Save this password in your password list check box is selected.

If your account is has been configured successfully, the Add New Email Account dialog box will indicate that the account has been created successfully.
