yahoo.com? #
POP3 is only provided for the pay-version of Yahoo.com - then it is
possible.

I don't think so, last I checked they didn't support POP access, but why
wouldn't you ask Yahoo?

Only if it's not Yahoo.com - all the other Yahoos work - like Yahoo.co.uk,
Yahoo.fr etc. Sign up for a Yahoo.co.uk account and it will work (I use
one). Don't know how long for though ... :-(

Yeah, I've been using YahooPOPs with Outlook 2002 to yank my e-mail as
though from a POP account and it's been working well for about a week.

There is one bug in the latest version (beta). The shortcut it creates in
the Startup group has a blank Start in field. It should be the same as
wherever you installed YahooPOPs so it can find its .xml configuration file;
otherwise, you get an error on loading YahooPOPs that it couldn't find its
..xml file in C:\ - because that's not where you installed it.

Considering that you seem to have a Yahoo.fr account, yes.

For pop, use pop.mail.yahoo.fr but change "mail" to whatever the word for
"mail" is in French.
For smtp, use smtp.mail.yahoo.fr but change "mail" to whatever the word for
"mail" is in French.

Check, that your account needs authorisation and then click on "settings"
and check "the same as my incoming mail server".

And there you go ...

Probably depends on how successful the Yahoo.com premium plan is. I, for
one, use Yahoo.es and Yahoo.ca for my Yahoo accounts.
