hi gudduskc,
I think the problem with Outlook Express for sending is that you have to manually change the COM port number from the standard to sth else. I remember seeing this info in one of the threads, but honestly too lazy to look for it...
I've given up trying to set up the YH mail on my phone, i think it won't work until i subscribe for the Yahoo Mail plus. |

I to am having trouble with yahoo emails. It works perfectly in outlook express but not on my phone. There are no errors, it just says get and send complete but doesnt actually download my messages.

Thats incorrect!
I have 2 yahoo email accounts set up on my P990i I just can't get them to work on my Outlook.
I'll post the settings in a bit.

You do NOT need Yahoo Mail Plus to have pop3 access to your emails. I dont and can access my yahoo email through Outlook Exress fine (just wont work on my P990i). I do think that newer Yahoo accounts cant do it though, you might have to have an account over a certain age (I have had mine for about 6-7 years.)

On the email settings menu there are 3 tabs: Basic, Inbox, Outbox.
I can't see anything to worry about on the Basic tab.
The next tab is Inbox:
Server address: pop.mail.yahoo.co.uk
Username: yours
Password: yours
Downloads Restricsions: This is set to No Restrictions.
Limit No of emails: Smaller than 99999
Receive using Group: Internet (my own).
There isn't really that much to check

UK Yahoo users do not need Mail Plus to access mail through POP3.
Something about how Yahoo was initially giving POP access to everyone and then later withdrawing it but this was deemed illegal in the UK.

Hi all,
To all of those of you still having problems what happens if you use either of the links on the first page as this will definitely send the right settings to your device.
We have also established that at least in the UK you do not need to have have a plus or premium account although you do need to activate the POP3 option on the YAHOO home page.
I must admit i really have trouble understanding why this is causing some of you so much grief i have been using my Yahoo account on various devices with out any problems at all and this also includes my M600 whilst i had it.
The only other factor that i can possibly think is causing a problem is the Network you are on, maybe you could mention in your post which network you are on because i know for instance that i couldn't get the settings sent when i had a Voda Sim card in the phone. I have also noticed that both Voda and 02 have E-Mail services for you @ a price maybe they have done something to make it either difficult or even impossible for you to do this without paying for the service. Those are the only things i can think of that may be causing all these problems otherwise i am stumped and have no other idea's I'm afraid.
Marc

@jcwhite_uk: in case you havent solved ur problem with downloading msgs yet, have you checked in ur messages options whether you set it on DOWNLOAD HEADERS ONLY. That seems to be ur problem |

It's simple: yahoo.com accounts need Premium Plus (2$/month) to access POP3.
yahoo.co.uk has POP3 free. So if you want POP3 free, register with yahoo.co.uk. That's what I did.
Hope this helps,
