To connect Outlook to Yahoo Mail, you'll need to set up an IMAP or POP3 account in Outlook. Here's a step-by-step guide to help you do so:

Method 1: IMAP Setup

1. Open Outlook and go to File > Add Account.
2. Select Manual setup or additional server types and click Next.
3. Choose Internet Email and click Next.
4. Enter your name, email address, and password.
5. In the Server Information section, select IMAP as the account type.
6. Enter the following settings:
   • Incoming mail server: imap.yahoo.com
   • Outgoing mail server: smtp.yahoo.com
   • Port: 993 (IMAP) or 587 (SMTP)
7. Click Next and then Finish.

Method 2: POP3 Setup

1. Open Outlook and go to File > Add Account.
2. Select Manual setup or additional server types and click Next.
3. Choose Internet Email and click Next.
4. Enter your name, email address, and password.
5. In the Server Information section, select POP3 as the account type.
6. Enter the following settings:
   • Incoming mail server: pop.yahoo.com
   • Outgoing mail server: smtp.yahoo.com
   • Port: 110 (POP3) or 587 (SMTP)
7. Click Next and then Finish.

Additional Settings

• Make sure to enable SSL/TLS encryption for both IMAP and POP3 connections.
• You may need to configure your Yahoo Mail account to allow less secure apps to access your account. To do this, go to your Yahoo Mail account settings, click on Account Info, and then toggle on Allow apps to access your account.
• If you're using two-factor authentication (2FA) with your Yahoo Mail account, you may need to generate an app password and use that instead of your regular password.

After setting up your Yahoo Mail account in Outlook, you should be able to access your Yahoo Mail inbox, send and receive emails, and use other features like calendar and contacts.
