Daniel asks…

How do I know what port to use for my POP server?

I’m trying to get my contacts, from another email, to be exported to my new email. The new email keeps on asking what is my POP server and it’s port number. I’m clueless and need help to figure out what my port is.

admin answers:

Note: this only works with Yahoo Mail Plus!

Incoming mail server (POP3): plus.pop.mail.yahoo.com
Outgoing mail server (SMTP): plus.smtp.mail.yahoo.com

Unfortunately, Yahoo wants to charge you for that.

Unlike gmail (which you can pop or imap for free), you need to subscribe to Mail Plus to use a third party mail program.

There used to be a program called ypops.

Unfortunately, yahoo made some changes and it stopped working for a while.

Ypops made some fixes. You can receive mail with the newest version but you cannot send mail. There is no prediction as to when this will be fixed.

So your options are

1) Subscribe to Mail Plus $19.99 / yr http://overview.mail.yahoo.com/enhancements/mailplus

2) Use ypops in its limited capacity.

3) Switch to gmail or GMX where it is free.
