Yahoo mail pop smtp setting
Here are the POP and SMTP settings for Yahoo Mail:
POP Settings:
- Server: pop.mail.yahoo.com
- Port: 995
- Encryption: SSL/TLS
- Username: Your Yahoo Mail address (e.g. [yourname]@yahoo.com)
- Password: Your Yahoo Mail password
SMTP Settings:
- Server: smtp.mail.yahoo.com
- Port: 587
- Encryption: STARTTLS
- Username: Your Yahoo Mail address (e.g. [yourname]@yahoo.com)
- Password: Your Yahoo Mail password
Note:
- Make sure to enable "Less secure app access" in your Yahoo Mail account settings if you're using a third-party email client or app. You can do this by going to the Yahoo Mail settings page, clicking on "Account info", and then toggling the switch next to "Less secure app access".
- If you're using a third-party email client or app, you may need to configure it to use the Yahoo Mail settings above. The specific steps will vary depending on the client or app you're using.
- Yahoo Mail has a limit on the number of emails you can retrieve using POP, so you may need to use IMAP or another email client if you need to access a large number of emails.
Troubleshooting Tips:
- If you're having trouble connecting to Yahoo Mail using POP or SMTP, try checking your email account settings to make sure that "Less secure app access" is enabled.
- If you're still having trouble, try using a different email client or app to see if the issue is specific to the one you're using.
- If you're using a firewall or antivirus software, try temporarily disabling it to see if it's blocking the connection to Yahoo Mail.
