Microsoft Outlook Email?

On my Dell Inspiron E1405 Laptop, I have Microsoft Outlook installed. Even though I have it installed, I cannot set up my email, because I do not know how. Does anyone know how to link my Yahoo! Email Classic to Microsoft Outlook so that whenever I open Microsoft Outlook, my Yahoo! emails are filtered into Outlook? This would be so nice, because I wouldn't have to open my email in Mozilla Firefox every time I wanted to check it!

Microsoft Outlook Email?
If you want to use Outlook, Outlook Express, Thunderbird or other third party email clients to view your email you have 2 options.


Subscribe to mail plus:

or download and install YPOPS


http://ypopsemail.com/








then follow the directions for your version of outlook here,

If you have trouble with set up, check the YPOPS installation page for alternate set up instructions.

Click on YPOPS link on the left.


Then Click on Configuring email clients towards the bottom.


Choose the appropriate link for your mail client.





I currently utilize version 2.0.0.4 of Thunderbird


and version 0.8.3 of YPOPS (there is a more recent version of YPOPS that you need if you are Yahoo Beta Mail) and have no problems.
Reply:Unless you have are paying for the Advanced Yahoo mail, you can't do it through Outlook/Entourage.





If you do have the advanced service, go to your "options" menu and there are directions there on how to set up Outlook/Entourage for your e-mail address.
Reply:You have to either have Mail Plus(paid) or use ypops in order to set up your email on Outlook.
Reply:You need POP3 address's in order to do it, which you have to pay for... They're not very expensive but pointless when you can just use hotmail or yahoo for free.
