I've got a new computer and i want to set up an Outlook Express email account. I've tapped in what i want my email to be and its come up with my POP3 and SMTP servers. What does this mean and what do I type here? I have orange wireless broadband.
Outlook Express Email?
The POP3 address is pop.mail.yahoo.com


The SMTP address is smtp.mail.yahoo.com





You'll also need to do this :-

Select POP %26amp; Forwarding


Click on Set up or Edit POP %26amp; Forwarding


Select Web %26amp; POP Access (+ any options you want)


Click on [SAVE]





If you still have problems E-mail neilmac9533@yahoo.co.uk


and I'll e-mail the step by step instructions to you. Hope this helps.
Reply:it means type in your hotmail or yahoo or whatever address
Reply:You need to visit orange's support for these settngs.





They will be something like smtp.orange.co.uk, but ring them or visit technical support for exact answers.
Reply:POP (short for popping) is the type of account you wish to set up.To do this you need to enter the incoming server address and the outgoing server address, nine times out of ten they are the same.If you google "pop 3 settings" for your ISP you should get something like, "mail.(ISP name).com"


Go to outlooks mail set up and enter these in the appropriate boxes, apply settings and you should be OK. Good Luck.
