Yahoo incoming mail server settings
Here are the incoming mail server settings for Yahoo:
Incoming Mail Server (POP3):
- Server name: pop.mail.yahoo.com
- Port: 995 (SSL/TLS)
- Username: Your Yahoo email address
- Password: Your Yahoo email password
Incoming Mail Server (IMAP):
- Server name: imap.mail.yahoo.com
- Port: 993 (SSL/TLS)
- Username: Your Yahoo email address
- Password: Your Yahoo email password
Notes:
- Make sure to use the correct server name and port number for your region. Yahoo has different server names for different regions, such as pop.mail.yahoo.com for the US and imap.mail.yahoo.com for the UK.
- If you're using a third-party email client, you may need to enable SSL/TLS encryption in the settings.
- Yahoo recommends using IMAP instead of POP3 for retrieving email, as it allows for two-way synchronization and keeps your email folders in sync across devices.
- If you're having trouble connecting to Yahoo's incoming mail server, try checking your email account settings or contacting Yahoo's support team for assistance.
Here are some examples of how to set up Yahoo's incoming mail server settings in popular email clients:
