i could have sworn it was an http, but i'm not positive. to add this account to outlook go to tools, then click on e-mail accounts and there you can add a new account (aka your yahoo account) to outlook
Reply:if you got free vision can't unless you get program called ypops do a search for it. Worked only fair for me but sometime ago maybe better now
Reply:Yahoo is POP3. 100% Sure . To configure it first go to your account settings and enable POP3 and then in Outlook create a new account with the following settings :


Server Settings


Incoming Mail Server (POP3):pop.mail.yahoo.co.in


Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP):smtp.mail.yahoo.co.in


using SMTP port 587


Account Name/Username:yourusername


Email address:yourusername@yahoo.com


Password:Your Yahoo! Mail password


Hope this helped you .


You can also try Mozilla Thunderbird (better than outlook)
