   I’m guessing that you want to send/receive emails using something like outlook express?

   It looks like you might have to pay a subscription fee according to this Yahoo page:

   the hoem page for the service is here:

   depends for what purpose u need them. if for a mail client use:

   Incoming Mail (POP3) Server: plus.pop.mail.yahoo.com (Use SSL, port: 995)
   Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server: plus.smtp.mail.yahoo.com (Use SSL, port: 465, use authentication)
   Account Name/Login Name: Your Yahoo! Mail ID (your email address without the “@yahoo.com”)
   Email Address: Your Yahoo! Mail address (e.g., user@yahoo.com)
   Password: Your Yahoo! Mail password

   nslookup query:

   smtp.yahoo.com canonical name = smarthost.yahoo.com
   smarthost.yahoo.com MX preference = 1, mail exchanger = mrout1-b.corp.re1.ya
   hoo.com
   smarthost.yahoo.com MX preference = 1, mail exchanger = mrout2-b.corp.re1.ya
   hoo.com
   smarthost.yahoo.com MX preference = 1, mail exchanger = mrout1.yahoo.com
   smarthost.yahoo.com MX preference = 1, mail exchanger = mrout2.yahoo.com
   smarthost.yahoo.com MX preference = 1, mail exchanger = mrout3.yahoo.com
