Yahoo mail smtp
Yahoo Mail provides an SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) server that allows you to send emails from your Yahoo Mail account using a third-party email client or application. Here are the details:
Yahoo Mail SMTP Settings:
- Server: smtp.mail.yahoo.com
- Port: 587 (TLS) or 25 (PLAIN TEXT)
- Username: Your Yahoo Mail address (e.g., [your_email_address]@yahoo.com)
- Password: Your Yahoo Mail password
- Authentication: Required (use your Yahoo Mail username and password)
Note: Yahoo Mail uses OAuth 2.0 for authentication, which is a more secure way to authenticate with your account. If you're using a third-party email client or application, you may need to use OAuth 2.0 instead of traditional username and password authentication.
Additional Settings:
- TLS/SSL: Enabled (recommended)
- STARTTLS: Enabled (recommended)
- Authentication: Required (use your Yahoo Mail username and password)
Troubleshooting Tips:
- Make sure your email client or application is configured to use the correct SMTP server and port.
- Check that your Yahoo Mail account is set up to allow less secure apps to access your account. You can do this by going to the Yahoo Mail settings page and enabling "Allow apps that use less secure sign in" (this is a security feature that helps prevent unauthorized access to your account).
- If you're still having trouble, try resetting your Yahoo Mail password or contacting Yahoo Mail support for assistance.
Important: Yahoo Mail has specific requirements for sending emails using their SMTP server. Make sure you review their guidelines and terms of service before using their SMTP server for sending emails.
