You must have an email that uses Pop3 if you want to use craigs list. Yahoo charges for Pop3 ,unless you use a slow work around.

Here is mine it is excellent

Then you set up the client, as shown in my early post.

First you have to download a client. Look at my list or you could use the one that I have gmx.com. If you want yahoo it will cost. Tell me which one you want to use.

My W7 came with Hotmail preloaded but I could not make it connect to the net! (I'm not savvy) My solution was - after three, hair pulling days - to uninstall it and go to the net and DL it. After executing it, it asked me for my usual password and then asked me if I wanted to make it my default e mail client, so now I'm fixed.

It may have not been the way others would have done it, but it worked.

Truth is I did that on a desperate lark and it accidentally worked.
