Is yahoo mail a pop3

Historically, Yahoo! Mail used to support POP3 (Post Office Protocol version 3) for retrieving email messages. However, in 2013, Yahoo! announced that they would be discontinuing POP3 support for their email service.

As of 2013, Yahoo! Mail no longer allows POP3 access to their email accounts. Instead, they recommend using IMAP (Internet Message Access Protocol) or the Yahoo! Mail web interface to access and manage email messages.

IMAP is a more modern and feature-rich protocol that allows for two-way synchronization of email messages between the email client and the email server. This means that when you delete an email message on your email client, it will also be deleted on the Yahoo! Mail server, and vice versa.

If you're looking for a way to access your Yahoo! Mail account using a third-party email client, you can use the Yahoo! Mail IMAP settings:

Keep in mind that Yahoo! Mail has some limitations and restrictions when using IMAP, such as not allowing you to send emails using a third-party client. For more information, you can refer to Yahoo!'s official documentation on using IMAP with their email service.
