    Syncing Yahoo! Email with Outlook Windows 7


    I'm not able to sync my Outlook. I get a box requesting me to Enter Network Password. The server info in already prepopulated and I can not change it--pop.mail.yahoo.com. I enter in my user name and password and click the OK button. The box goes away for a couple seconds and the box reappears asking me for my password again but doesn't give me an error message.

    Any thoughts?

    Might be nice to see what screens your entering this information on ?

    Although entering "pop" into any screen doesn't sound correct to me in any version of office outlook,
    If you have a Yahoo plus account the entry might be as simply as In-coming server mail.yahoo.com and Out-going server mail.yahoo.com ?
    pop3 would be a account Type not some thing you enter in front of your email address.
    Just to confuse you lol,

    Don't know if this applies but I thought you had to have the paid Yahoo subscription account to do the sync......?

    From what I've heard from Yahoo mail users I think you are correct.

    I guess I should mentioned a (Yahoo plus account) is Not the free account,
    Thanks to both of you for reiterating that fact,
    Cheers.
