Generally, Yahoo Mail can only be received and sent through the Web. Therefore, many netizens who love to use Foxmail to manage emails have to discard Yahoo Mail. In fact, Yahoo provides a free "direct online advertising" function that allows you to use Foxmail and outlook to send and receive Yahoo Mail.
To use this function, you must first register as a member of Yahoo direct online advertising. The specific method is as follows:
1. Start IE browser and log on to your Yahoo mailbox. (Note: It must be Yahoo, China)
2. Type http://edit.my.yahoo.com/config/set_popfwd in the address bar ?. Src = ym & done = http: // CN. <username> .mail.com/
Note that you have entered a halfwidth character, and you must replace "<username>" with "Yahoo!" in your Yahoo Mail! ID, that is, the account name.
Press enter to enter the registration page.
3. On the registration page, click "read emails and pop functions online", and then click "Submit" at the bottom of the page.
4. The following page will show you that the POP3 server is pop.mail.yahoo.com.cn, And the SMTP server is smtp.mail.yahoo.com.cn.
This indicates that the "direct online advertising" member of your Yahoo mailbox is successfully registered.
Now, you can set your Yahoo Mail in Foxmail/outlook just like setting other email accounts.
