How to Add Yahoo Mail Account to Nokia N900

Labels:

Add your Yahoo mail account without paying for Yahoo Mail Plus.

Open Email app

Tap on Email menu



Tap on New account



Tap Next
You'll see this after you tap next


Choose your Region
Service Provider - choose Other
Account title - whatever title you like
Then hit Next


Name - Your name
User name - Yahoo ID
Password - Yahoo password
E-mail address - Yahoo email address (e.g. n900addict@yahoo.com)
Tap Next


Account type - IMAP4
Incoming server (IMAP4) - imap.n.mail.yahoo.com
Tap Next



Outgoing server (SMTP) - smtp.mobile.mail.yahoo.com
Tap Next



Tap on Advance Settings
Scroll all the way down to the last port. Note that there are two ports, the first one should be 143 and the second change it to 587
Tap Save



Tap Finish

It may take a while to update, but if you still don't see your messages after 5-10 minutes, I suggest you restart your phone.

Good Luck!

Thanks. That was very helpful. However, when I'm connected to the Wireless, I get a SMTP authentication error.. Any workaround for that ..
