In my previous post I have mentioned how you can integrate Gmail Email account with Ooulook Express via POP settings, now in this post I mention the way with which you can enable your yahoo account too into Outlook Express. As this is well known Yahoo doesn’t provide a way to direct configure its pop settings as Google does but still there is a way you can do it!

7. Now Select POP3 drop down menu from the window arrives and Type “localhost” for both Incoming (POP3) and Outgoing mail (SMTP) servers. Click Next..
8. Now this is the time to provide outlook with the yahoo user id and password so that every time you open outlook it don’t ask for the password ( However you can omit this option by unticking Remember “My Password Option” if you want further privacy but remember doing so will not prevent anybody from viewing the mails already stored in your mailbox only this will cause for the new massage arriving. Click Next and then Finish…
9. Now from the Internet Accounts window ( You already know how to where to find mentioned above ) select Localhost and then properties and from the windows comes choose Servers tab and in the bottom tick the checkbox My server requires authentication. and choose settings…
