I would like to use Outlook Express or Eudora to check my yahoo mail. It is too much of a hassle to have to open up Yahoo and login and everything. I know that they charge 25 bucks a year to have the feature to do this, but to save the 25, does anyone know a way to setup the SMTP and POP settings to accept particular yahoo mail?

IMO, its a waste of 25 bucks for a feature like that. That should be normal.

Thanks
Bryan

Your right, but it was worth a shot. I actually came across a program searching the web that is called Yahoo Pops, i guess its a way sorta to do the transfer, but it looks fishy

considering that Yahoo charge for this functionality I'd be cautious, if you did find a way of doing it Yahoo could easily close the loop-hole,

you might also find you are breaching terms + conditions of using Yahoo Mail,

hope that helps,

They never allow POP3 access without taking money.

If your ISP got bought up by Yahoo, they may still have POP mail available to you.
