What you are talking about is pop/IMAP access,

Yahoo does not offer pop access to its free customers ,only paid users get it,

General instruction for POP enabled pop accounts.

Go to Tools >accounts> select mail and then add(mail) ,connection wizard opens
coose any name

Next write full Email address (eg. Marzouquie@yahpoo.com)

select pop/IMAP based on what your Email provider is offering

Write pop server name(something like pop.yahoo.com) server address is usually given on the website ,Gmail provides that under help Setting pop access once you open account with them.

Similar for smtp(smtp.yahoo.com) .most provider dont provide smtp access for fear of spamming. so leave it blank ot fill it Your ISPs smtp server adress if it provides that.

Next
Account name: full mail address
password:your password

Select remember password ,if you want it retreive mail auto.

SPA settings :again depend on Provider to provider (leave it blank if not sure.)

Next finish

Again go to Tools >accounts >mail
select your mail accounnt and go to properties

select advanced

Fill in PORT nos(most provider have default 110,25 for pop and smtp but not all EX. gmail has different for different Email clients ,check that with your provider).

also set ssl settings which is again different fo different providers ,like gamil have it.


Select ok

That's it,your account is set to retrieve mail .

AS for info listing some free pop Email providers

Gmail,hotmail(settings might be different),bluebottle.com,

Or

hotmail has been with outlook express since a long time.... its very easy to configure.

yahoo is paid... you have to purchase the extra 20 $$ acct to get pop3/smtp enabled

currently the best of the bunch remains gmail... it offers free pop3/smtp and more space than most..

If u need a gmail invite pm me and ill gladly send one

microsoft disabled outlook express for most users a couple of months back. they claimed that it led to spamming. but everyone knows that outlook express won't show the horrible ads which hurted them.

But For accessing Gmail, you need to enter server's port number(which is 995 for incoming and 25 for outgoing), i don't see any field for putting them in Mailbox configration. So how did u put them in the phone, 'cause i believe this is the reason, why gmail is not working in my phone.

BTW, i've have enabled security and yes please post the complete configration, it may happen that i've entered some other fields wrong.

You can send/receive Yahoo mail with your email client using YPoPs!

Well i'm using ngage QD, which runs on symbian 6.1, i guess, n70 with its newer OS would have these port options.
