I have tried many methods, but none of them works for free yahoo email account.

How to configure free Yahoo email account in Microsoft outlook 2003 SP3, to send %26amp; receive emails ?
many will say you cant - but they're wrong. i know cause i had it working on my old pc w/ xp pro and office 2003. still trying to tweak it on vista thought (which sucks, by the way). first step is to download and install a free program called YPOPs! which i recommend getting from downloads.com so that u wont get any unwanted attachments w/ it. start it up (i recommend putting a shortcut in ur startup menu) and once it is running, open outlook. click on tools in the menu bar %26gt; email accounts. tell it to add a new email account and click next. fill out user name boxes, making sure to add @yahoo.com to the email address one. for server info, type in localhost for both incoming and outgoing servers. for logon information, type ur email address (include @yahoo.com) and then type in your password. i find it useful to have it remember the password, but thats just a personal preference of mine. now click on more settings, and on the outgoing server tab, check my outgoing server (SMTP) requires authentication. select use same settings as my incoming mail server, then press ok. that window will go away. click next, and then finish. send yourself a test email from your yahoo account using the website, or use another email account (recommended) if you have one. let me know if u have any problems. enjoy!
Reply:Of course you can NOT. Unless you pay for Y!Plus xD
