7. READ YAHOO MAIL IN OUTLOOK?

Those of you who have struggled with Outlook 2002's support of Hotmail
(the decidedly un-integrated separate folder that doesn't do much, see
http://www.woodyswatch.com/office/archtemplate.asp?v6-n26 ) may be
looking for an alternative. Yahoo has a decent free email service (which was
once plagued with privacy/disclosure problems but now, I'm assured, ranks
among the more enlightened), but there's no way to retrieve your Yahoo mail
in Outlook, short of paying for "POP3 support".

Or is there?

There's a fascinating program called YahooPops, at
http://yahoopops.sourceforge.net/ , that tricks Yahoo Mail into behaving
like a POP3 email server - and that's exactly what you need to be able to
handle the mail in Outlook.

YahooPops is still in beta, so only the strong-willed need apply, at this
point. But perhaps it's a glimpse into the
future?

8. YAHOO - THE LAST OUTLOOK SYNCHRONIZER STANDING
Sue Mosher's Slipstick Web site, http://www.slipstick.com/, is reporting
the imminent demise of ReadySyncGo!, one of the few Outlook/PDA
Contact/Calendar synching services left on the Web. If you use ReadySyncGo
(http://www.readysyncgo.com/splash/default.asp ), you better retrieve your
data before September 15. That's when the site officially goes belly-up.

The last free Contact/Calendar synchronizing service that's widely
available is from Yahoo. To synchronize Contacts, you have to log on at
http://address.yahoo.com , then click the button marked "Import/Export" in
the upper right corner, and then follow the instructions to milk a CSV
(comma-separated-value) file from Outlook, before uploading it to Yahoo.
The Calendar sync is at http://calendar.yahoo.com - and they're both about
to be
integrated with Yahoo Mail (see
http://tour.mail.yahoo.com/betatour.html ).
