I would like to use either my hotmail or yahoo email account in outlook express and I don't know how it is to be done.
How do I use my hotmail or yahoo email in Outlook Express?
YOU CAN DO IT BY YPOPS! SOFTWARE
believe me it's working without any yahoo premium account
YPOPs! is an application that provides POP3 access to Yahoo! Mail. It is available o卢n the Windows, Linux, Solaris and Mac platforms.
Yahoo! Mail disabled free access to its POP3 service o卢n 24th April, 2002. This application emulates a POP3 server and enables popular email clients like Outlook, Netscape, Eudora, Mozilla, etc., to download email from Yahoo! accounts. We do not go against the license agreements of Yahoo! Mail. This application is completely legitimate and well within the realms of legal software.
How do we do it you ask? Well, this application is more like a gateway. It provides a POP3 server interface at o卢ne end to talk to email clients and an HTTP client (browser) interface at the other which allows it to talk to Yahoo!

Reply:For some time now, Yahoo has not been setup to have the ability to directly check your Yahoo email through OE. You can do it but you need to use a 3rd party app, called Yahoo POPs, in conjunction with Outlook Express. There is also something called Hotmail Popper I think that is the HotMail counterpart. The link for that app is below.
Reply:configuring hotmail in outlook is pretty straight forward but in yahoo you only get pop access if you subscribe to there Yahoo Plus service.
otherwise you would need a thirdparty website/app. to access yahoo through outlook like YPOPs.(link below)
Configuring HOTMAIL in outlook.
Start Outlook Express, and then click Accounts on the Tools menu.
Click Add, and then click Mail.
In the Display name box, type your name, and then click Next.
In the E-mail address box, type your Hotmail address, and then click Next.
Click HTTP in the My incoming mail server is box. If Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) is not an available choice, you must enable it in the registry.
In the My HTTP mail service provider is box, click Hotmail.
Confirm that "http://services.msn.com/svcs/hotmail/ht... (without quotation marks) is in the Incoming mail (POP3),IMAP or HTTP server box, and then click Next.
In the Account name box, type your Hotmail account name.
In the Password box, type your password, click Next, and then click Finish.
Your new account appears on the Mail tab of the Internet Accounts dialog box.
Click Close. At the prompt to download folders from the mail server that you added, click Yes.
hope this helps
