all email accounts into one

Do the free webmails offer POP? such as AOL, Yahoo mail, Hotmail?

I have been looking for it and have found nothing.

Any help would be great thanks.

 

You can get POP for Gmail only for free.

I am not sure of AOL.

 

You mean you can setup your Gmail in your outlook express?

 

Microsoft's Hotmail too

 

Almost all major email service providers provide POP support. This includes Gmail, Yahoo, Hotmail. You'll have to know the POP settings before you can start using it. If you use programs like IncrediMail, then the settings are automatically filled when you configure your account.

I think he was referring to the new feature by Gmail which allows us to access other POP accounts (excepts Gmail accounts), through our Gmail account. I don't think anyother provider has such an offer.

 

How do you find the POP details though?

Thanks!

 

Yes this is possible you can setup your Yahoo, Gmail, Hot mail account in your outlook express. Even I have setup my Gmail account in my outlook

 

I think you can Setup only Gmail and Hotmail accounts in Outlook Express no idea about Yahoo Mail

 

Yes you can setup it in outlook or any other software.

Open gmail account and click on Settings tab. After this click Forwarding and POP & click "Enable POP for all mail ". Thats it.

You can even send a copy of mail that arrives at gmail at your other address too.


I am not sure abou Hotmail. Once I tried and it said you have to purchase.

 

Configuration Details
Gmail
Incoming Server : pop.gmail.com
Outgoing Server : smtp.gmail.com
Log on using Secure server connectin : False
My Server Requires Authentication : TRUE
(you can use same login info for outgoing server too)
Outgoing Server Port (SMTP) : 465
Incoming Server Port (POP3) : 995
Both the servers require secure connection (SSL)

Alternately, you can download Gmail Config from Google Help for configuring Outlook and Outlook express.
And do not forget to enable POP support as *SUNNY* said above

Yahoo
Incoming Server : pop.mail.yahoo.com
Outgoing Server : smtp.mail.yahoo.com
Log on using Secure server connectin : False
My Server Requires Authentication : TRUE
(you can use same login info for outgoing server too)
Outgoing Server Port (SMTP) : 587
Incoming Server Port (POP3) : 110
Both the servers require secure connection (SSL)

Hotmail
Use mail server type as Hotmail

Rediffmail
Incoming mail Server type : POP3
Incoming Mail Server : bom7.vsnl.net.in
Outgoing Mail Server : bom7.vsnl.net.in
Log on using Secure server connectin : False
My Server Requires Authentication : False
Outgoing Server Port (SMTP) : 25
Incoming Server Port (POP3) : 110
Both the servers do not require secure connection

Hope This Helps.

 

I think that for Yahoo!, you will have to purchase Yahoo Plus.

 

Nope. The free Yahoo Account also support SMTP and POP3 access.

 

It means that I can setup Outlook express with yahoo?

 

i would just do hotmail...

 

Yes, You can do that. Create the new account using the wizard. Then goto Tools > Accounts > Double Click on the newly created account >
Goto the tab servers and select "My server requires authentication"
Goto the tab Advanced and set the SMTP and POP3 port numbers as 25 and 995 resp. Also both servers need secure connection.

Fill these up and you will be all set to download your mails to your computer .

I don't understand why you are still using Yahoo. I hate it. Gmail is my favorite. Now that I've signed up for Google Apps, I can't even think of using any other Mail Service

 

Try gmail for that

 

gmail is the best and it is the only one i think.
