How to Configure Yahoo Mail for Microsoft Office Outlook
- 1). Download and install the Ypops extension. This self-extracting file will work with Outlook to make the free version of Yahoo! Mail compatible with it by changing the way that Outlook interacts with the mail server.
- 2). Open Outlook. Open the "Tools" menu and select "Account Settings." A new window will open. Select the "Email" tab.
- 3). Click "New." When prompted, select "Microsoft Exchange, POP3, IMAP, or HTTP" as the type. Then select "Next" and enter your email account information.
- 4). When prompted, type "127.0.0.1" as both the incoming and outgoing mail server. Make sure to type in this address exactly as it appears (without the quotation marks).
- 5). Continue to follow the prompts and enter your Yahoo! username and password. Then click "OK" to complete the process.
