Here's a step-by-step guide to setting up Yahoo Mail using POP3:

You have a third-party email client or app that supports POP3 (e.g., Microsoft Outlook, Mozilla Thunderbird, Apple Mail, etc.).
You have the POP3 settings for your Yahoo Mail account.

Step-by-Step Setup:

Open your email client or app: Launch your email client or app and go to the settings or preferences section.
Add a new account: Click on "Add account" or "New account" and select "POP3" or "POP" as the account type.
Enter the POP3 settings: Fill in the POP3 settings as follows:
- Server: pop.mail.yahoo.com
- Port: 995 (SSL/TLS)
- Username: Your Yahoo Mail address (e.g., [your_email_address]@yahoo.com)
- Password: Your Yahoo Mail password
- Authentication: Password
Set the outgoing server: If your email client or app requires an outgoing server, set it to:
- Server: smtp.mail.yahoo.com
- Port: 587 (TLS) or 465 (SSL)
- Username: Your Yahoo Mail address (e.g., [your_email_address]@yahoo.com)
- Password: Your Yahoo Mail password
- Authentication: Password
Save the changes: Save the changes to your email client or app.
Test the connection: Try sending and receiving emails using your Yahoo Mail account to test the connection.

Important Notes:

Make sure to enable POP3 access in your Yahoo Mail account settings. To do this, go to the Yahoo Mail settings page, click on "More Settings" (or "Settings" in some versions), and then toggle the switch next to "POP3" to the "On" position.
If you're using a third-party email client or app, you may need to configure additional settings, such as the "Leave a copy on the server" option, to ensure that emails are downloaded correctly.
Yahoo Mail has a limit on the number of emails that can be downloaded using POP3. If you exceed this limit, you may need to use IMAP or another email client or app that supports Yahoo Mail.
