Opening Verizon Yahoo! Mail Classic Your Way

• Opening in a Web browser

  When you use this method, you’re connecting to a server somewhere in Verizon Yahoo!land that stores your Verizon Yahoo! Mail (and all of your account information). Because you’re using a Web browser, you can access your email on virtually any computer in the world with an Internet connection.

• Opening in the Verizon Yahoo! Browser

  The Verizon Yahoo! Browser is similar to other browsers, such as Internet Explorer or Firefox, with the added bonus of giving you quick access to Verizon Yahoo! services, such as Verizon Yahoo! Mail.

• Opening in an email application

  If you have an email application, such as Outlook or Eudora, installed on your computer, or a PDA email application, such as VersaMail, installed on your mobile phone, you can set up the email application to connect to the Verizon Yahoo! Mail server and access your mail account using the application.

• By forwarding your Verizon Yahoo! Mail to another email account

  Using this method, you can set up Verizon Yahoo! Mail to forward all incoming email messages to another email address, even another Verizon Yahoo! Mail address. For example, let’s say you have your Verizon Yahoo! account, me@verizon.net, and you have another email account, mine@personal.com. If most of your email comes to mine@personal.com, it might make sense to forward your Verizon Yahoo! Mail to that account so you can read and organize all of your email in one place.

Accessing Other Email Accounts Through Verizon Yahoo! Mail

If you’re looking for a way to manage multiple email accounts in one location, you might consider setting up your Verizon Yahoo! Mail to receive and send email messages from your other email accounts. We cover this in the Accessing Other Email Accounts tutorial.

Using Multiple Email Addresses in One Verizon Yahoo! Mail Account

If you create multiple email accounts to avoid giving your "real" email address to businesses and people you don’t know, use Verizon Yahoo! Mail’s disposable addresses and access all your email in one place while cutting down on spam. Your Verizon Yahoo! Mail account can have many disposable addresses. If you find that a particular disposable address is receiving lots of spam, delete it. Your real email address is still active and still relatively free of unwanted mail.
