View Yahoo email in Outlook 2003

[Laura]

I have successfully set up an email account in Outlook
2003 to receive my Hotmail mail.

However,I have tried to set up an email account in
Outlook 2003 to receive my Yahoo mail but I cannot see my
Yahoo mailbox from Outlook. I suspect that the Server URL
in the Settings (HTTP) dialog is incorrect. I have tried
using the URL from my usual Yahoo login
(http://login.yahoo.com/config/mail?) but that does not
work.

Does anyone know what does work for Yahoo?

Thanks

Try these server settings under eMail Settings/POP e-mail
tab/Server Information

Incoming: pop.mail.yahoo.com
Outgoing: smtp.mail.yahoo.com

yahoo doesn't support the webdav protocol needed for HTTP access in Outlook
or OE.
