POP server settings for Yahoo Mail
Here are the settings you'll need for sending and receiving emails using an email client, like Outlook or Mac Mail.

Incoming Mail (POP) Server
Requires SSL (Secure Socket Layer)

Server - pop.mail.yahoo.com
Port - 995
Requires SSL - Yes
Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server
Requires TLS (Transport Layer Security)

Server - smtp.mail.yahoo.com
Port - 465 or 587
Requires SSL - Yes
Requires authentication - Yes
If your POP client doesn't offer TLS, you'll still be able to use SSL.

Good to know
POP only downloads info from Yahoo Mail to your client. It won't upload changes you've made in your client back to Yahoo Mail. If you'd like to sync both ways, you should consider using IMAP. Learn the differences between POP and IMAP.
