Yahoo! Mail users can read their email in IncrediMail by
subscribing to the
Yahoo! Mail Plus service. This service allows you to use
IncrediMail or another POP3 client to access and manage your Yahoo!
Mail messages.
IncrediMail allows you to set up multiple email accounts, so you
don't have to replace your current POP and SMTP settings in order
to send and receive new Yahoo! Mail messages.
- From the IncrediMail main window, click on the "Tools" menu and
select "Accounts."
- Click on the "Add" button to create a new email account.
- The account wizard will open. Select the preference "Let me
configure settings myself" and click "Next."
- Insert your name (as you would like it to appear on the emails
you send) and your Yahoo! email address (you@yahoo.com.ph). Click
"Next."
- IncrediMail will attempt to automatically fill out the email
server settings for you.
- Enter or verify that your incoming and outgoing servers are:
Incoming mail server: pop.mail.yahoo.com.ph
Outgoing mail server: smtp.mail.yahoo.com.ph
- The next dialog will request that you enter your Yahoo! ID and
password.
- Click "Finish."
Important: The Yahoo! Mail SMTP server now requires
authentication. To turn this setting on, follow these steps:
- From the Mail Accounts window, select your Yahoo! account and
click on "Properties."
- Click the "Servers" tab.
- Click the "My server requires authentication" field.
- Click "OK."
To control deletion of messages from the Yahoo! Mail server:
- From the IncrediMail main window, click on the "Tools" menu and
select "Accounts."
- Select your Yahoo! Mail account and click on "Properties."
- Click on "Advanced" tab.
- Check the "Leave a copy of messages on server" field.
- Click "OK."
A copy of the messages will now be left on the Yahoo! server,
allowing you to read your email via the Web.
