To configure a new POP3 account in an email client you need to know the incoming and outgoing server addresses, and the login details (username + password). The Yahoo POP3 settings given below will work only for accounts with the Plus upgrade. • Email address: Your full Yahoo! email address; for example, yahoo-ID@yahoo.com. • Password: The password of your account. • Name – Account name or Login name: Your Yahoo ID; the part before the ‘at’ (@) sign. • Incoming Mail (POP3) Server: plus.pop.mail.yahoo.com. You need to use SSL and put 995 as the port. • Outgoing Mail Server: plus.smtp.mail.yahoo.com. SSL usage is required with port 465. You also need to employ authentication.
