I think you already got the answer.

@engrusaf: The last time I checked (late 2004), POP3 on both Yahoo & Hotmail were available only if you upgraded your free account to a paid subscription. Unless that policy has changed, your answer is, "No".

Yahoo UK still has a free 250MB service with POP3 access.

I got 2GB on my Yahoo! with pop3, only 11.99 a yr worth it to me, I have 2 gmail accounts too...

pop3 hotmail access is available using IzySoft's mail server. Just input your details and use pop3hot.com as the pop3 server name, and you get a 14-day trial. They will email you with details of how to subscribe. It costs about $10 for a year, I think.

Why doesn't Vodafone NZ support Yahoo OR!! Hotmail, when you get Vodafone Europe, Australia or Japan having MSN Hotmail, MSN Messenger (Straight off the WAP mobile.msn.com) AND Yahoo...

As far as i know, free yahoo pop3 mail isn't available in india. But i don't need one anyway! Anyone tried bluebottle.com?

Posted by govigov
What is bluebottle.com? Free pop3?

Posted by whizkidd
Yeah. But the last time i urge to sign up there, it said they were temporarily suspending all new accounts. That was a month ago though.

Posted by govigov
Ok. Will you go check? Since mymail is refusing to work, i'm looking for one that can send outgoing mails. P.s will you make one for me? :-D

Posted by whizkidd
Ok lemme see!

Posted by govigov
Thanks man. Use govigov and pm me the password. :-D

Posted by whizkidd
Sorry gov! That site has suspended new sign ups. Meanwhile, i'm looking for other sites. I'll keep you posted.

Posted by govigov
:-(. Thanks man.

Posted by whizkidd
Np

Posted by whizkidd

Thanks man. By tmrw morn, if i still cant get it to work, i will look for more pop access sites.

Posted by whizkidd
the problem occurs when the enter the number as you see in the box thing appears. I am not able to see any numbers so can't sign up.

Posted by OluYom
@govigov: You can get a free POP3 account at http://freemail.swissinfo.org. I have one and use it with my P800's email client. Works well too.

Posted by whizkidd
Thanks Aya! Do you know why i'm not able to sign up on wap?

Posted by OluYom
@whiz: The URL is a Web page. If you had a P-series or Nokia communicator, both of which have Web browsers, you should be able to signup.


Posted by govigov
I saw the image for verification, after entering it just throws me out. :-(

Posted by whizkidd
Aya, i'm using netfront browser. Is that ok?

Posted by OluYom
@whiz: Ah, Netfront! That should be able to handle it. I have it installed on my P800 but havent used it yet. My network is taking their time in activating my Internet GPRS account. I'd love some feedback on NetFront. I opened a thread on it recently. See if you can post there.

Posted by whizkidd
Give me the link Aya. And its quite good. On par with opera.

Posted by OluYom
Couldnt find the thread I started, but here's another I just dug up: http://wap.esato.com/board/wap.php?topic=57290&sid=1026371932#esato . Its a WAP link.

Posted by engrusaf
You are right Aya yahoo pop is no free now.I just checked yahoo options & help section.

Posted by whizkidd
But there are many many others who offer full pop3 access for free. Why choose yahoo then?

Posted by engrusaf
Govigov try also yourwap.com & hotpop.com. These offer free pop access

Posted by whizkidd
Thanks @engrusaf!

Posted by grungero
Hey guys!

Why don't you try at?:
http://www.cashette.com

This one gives you free pop access, and not only that, you can configure the service so you can check your hotmail & yahoo accounts on your own cashette's account.

Plus it gives you a spam payment service or something like that, but isn't the point here.

I've tried the web based service and it does work with the external accounts, it brings all your new mails from different accounts to the same inbox.

BUT i haven't tried it on my k700i, because i'm too lazy about doing any configuration

So give it a try, and post...

Posted by govigov
Ok.

Posted by OluYom
Only problem I have with hotpop is they refuse to give me their mailserver IP. My P800 never could connect using mail.hotpop.com, so I had to ditch it. I am very happy at the moment with swissinfo.

Posted by govigov
checked hotpop. sucks big time. i cant connect to server.

Posted by govigov
where are the pop3 settings on freemail.swissinfo? i did not see them?

Posted by govigov
ok. pls help. yourwap has stopped registration.


edit: succesfully send email from hot pop. thank god. let me test with a pic to gmail. testing....... sending attacthment.... email send. finally.

edit2: finally. got them to work. since gmail hangs, i have set forwartds from gmail to HotPOP, which delivers it to my phone. i in return will reply thru HotPOP to the recepient. if there is an easier way, pls let me know.

@govigov: Use mail.swissinfo.org for both incoming & outgoing mail servers. Your username & password you know. That's all there is to it.

Posted by engrusaf
Registration on yourwap is going on Govigov. Try wap.yourwap.com instead of www.yourwap.com. Once you registered than login on www.yourwap.com via your mobile as you might face prob to login thru wap.yourwap.com like me

Posted by govigov
Aya, hotpop is Damn fast and server the purpose. However, i will try swissinfo, i really like that. I searched long for pop setting or that, but i couldnt get it.

Posted by whizkidd
Cool! I'm gonna sign up for all these sites! _________________ :grin: Have you guys read my interview?

@govi: Looks to me like you have found what you need in Hotpop BTW, do you have the IP for the mailservers?

Posted by govigov
Nope, just mail.hotpop.com you can find the ip by pinging that server. (I think.)
