Here's how to set up Yahoo POP mail with instant "PUSH" functionality

Originally I used iTunes to sync and dump my POP mail settings into the iPhone during my first sync after activation.
DON'T do it this way and if you did delete that account from the iPhone and then go into the Mail settings on the iPhone and set up the mail settings under the "Add Account" feature. The top selection is Yahoo. It will simply ask you for the mail username and password. Once you complete this you will now have the greatly useful and most desired instan "PUSH" mail promised in conjunction with AT&T, Yahoo and Apple. A great thing.
All other POP mail settings are set to simply check your email every 15, 30, 45 etc minutes. This is no fun.
Once I reset the iPhone and set up the new account email is instant and you get the beloved "bing" alert as the come in.

I was able to get this to work and push email works with my Yahoo account. Unfortunately, the iPhone mail does not respect the 'reply-to' setting for yahoo mail.
When I send mail from Yahoo mail on the web, the reply-to address makes it look like the mail is coming from my standard business account.
But when I send mail from my iPhone, the "@yahoo.com" email address is all that shows up in the outgoing message!
I don't like this because I would prefer that all the email I send has the same reply-to address, so my recipients don't get confused.
Is there a workaround or fix for this?

  • How can i configure yahoo chat mail with ichat

    Hi Everyone,
    Can anybody explain how to configure yahoo mail with ichat, I did it already and its working properly with text chat but the voice and video features are not available.

    Hi,
    This will work if you have a Mac contact who also has Yahoo set up in iChat.
    At iChat 3 the Jabber Option was introiduced.
    This also has been that  Mac to Mac (iChat to iChat) is need to make Audio of Video chats.
    iChat will not Video chat to the Standalone GoogleTalk app on PCs or the Web Based chat on Google Mail or iGoogle pages, whether PC of Mac.  (GoogleTalk is a Jabber Server).
    The Yahoo option in iChat is no different.  (You need an iChat Buddy with a Yahoo account).

  • How to set up Yahoo in Mail

    Is it possible to set up a Yahoo account within Mail?

    Yes with a paid or Yahoo Mail Plus account.

  • How to set up 2 iMacs, one with a non-functioning graphics card.

    Looking for suggestions.
    I have a 2009 27" iMac that has a broken graphics card. At least that's what I think is wrong with it cause when I turn it on I see white screens with vertical pink bars from top to bottom. I bought a new iMac 5K and I wanted to see if I could connect the old iMac as a second screen. Would that still need a functioning graphics card for the old or will the new iMac which will be the main computer be able to run both screens with it's own graphics card. I don't have a mini Display port cable yet as I wanted to see what people think first before I go get one. The old iMac has no thunderbolt port and has a mini display port, Ethernet and Firewire only. I'd appreciate any input on this learning process.

    Hello vman1027,
    As long as the 27" iMac is a Late 2009 model, you should be able to utilize its display as a Target Display for your 5k iMac.

    In Mail>Preferences>Accounts tab>Account Information tab - from the 'Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP):' drop-down menu select 'Edit SMTP Server List...', choose the server you want to edit from those listed, click on the Advanced tab. Does that give you the option you're after?

  • Since installing Firefox I cannot send Yahoo pop mail from my Outlook

    I have always used Outlook for my yahoo mail under the normal POP3 set up. For many months I have been using Outlook 2010 for my yahoo mail in this way. I just installed a Slingbox and Firefox to make that work. Now my Outgoing yahoo pop mail won't work yet my inbound does. All the SMTP settings are as prescribed by yahoo when trying manual set up, and Outlook 2010 cannot set up automatically either (as it was previously able to do). All advice gratefully received.

    Try deleting and readding the account. Yahoo has been having issues for weeks. Sometimes it's them. Sometimes with the iOS6 upgrade you need to reenter account info.
    Another workaround can be to access yahoo via safari and access your mail that way until it works out.

  • E72 yahoo pop mail not synchronising new mails

    hi guyz
    thanx for yo help i managed to set up my e72 yahoo pop mail. However, it only loaded mails the time i set the pop, after that it never synchronised any new mail. Sending mails and replying is working perfect except loading new mails. Last time i deleted the setup and restarted, but the problem still exists. All settings in the inbox seem to be fine but still new mails wont load!

    Have you checked if there is an update for your Email client on the phone? You can check Nokia Suite if there is an available update for your device. If there is none, you can reinstall the software. If you continue to experience the same issue, you can do reformat the device. Make sure that you have a backup file before doing the reset as it will delete all the data on the phone. Check this link for the codes:

  • How to set up iOS calendar app with shared Google Calendar data

    At work (in our small office) I've been given access to the shared Google Calendar that has our work schedule. It was set up using this page (click on Share an existing calendar):
    https://support.google.com/calendar/answer/37082
    The question I have is how to set it up to work with iOS calendar app on my iPhone?

    "currently there is no shared group calendar support."
    Well, not really. You hinted at it with: "set up a group wiki."
    Go into Workgroup Manager and set up an Open Directory group. Add people to it.
    Each client must then go into iCal --> Preferences --> Accounts and add an account. The name and password entered must be the same as that added to the group, Kerberos must be unchecked, and the account URL will be like (fill in the blanks properly):
    http://<your domain name here>:8008/principals/groups/<your group name here>/
    Now each properly logged in user of that group can make changes to the shared group calendar, without any "hacks" like making dummy users and delegation.
    However, I am getting a notifier: "Request Error: Accesss to <event name> in <your group name here> in account <your group name here> is not permitted." But that seems to be a lie, since multiple members of the group can make changes and others can see the changes.
    Oh yea, make sure you have a functioning DNS with valid reverse lookup.

    If the Inbox for this account only is revealed, is there any triangle beside it?
    Ah, yes, I see! Silly me to be looking for Sent mail under "Sent"! Indeed, there's a disclosure triangle next to the account name under "Inbox", and wen you open it, it shows Drafts, Sent, spam, and Trash. The sent items are indeed there.
    Mind you, my Dot Mac accounts show up normally, i.e., their sent mail goes under "Sent". Wish all IMAP accounts did that. It sure isn't logical to show sent mail inside an inbox...
    But to answer your question: In addition to having the "Sent" folder for the account under "Inbox", I also have a folder for the account under "Sent". This folder disappears when I check the box to store messages on the server. There were emails in it (the ones I placed there myself). I have now moved those emails to the sent sub-folder under the account under "Inbox". Even with the "store on server" option UNchecked, the emails were instantly duplicated to the server, so that they were present both locally and remotely. I then checked the "store on server box"; this made the mailbox for the account under "Sent" vanish.
    To summarize: things appear to work normally now, except that I find it very inconvenient to have to look in two separate "Sent" folders to find emails I've written.

  • Yahoo POP Mail just stopped working in 10.6.7

    I have three Macs, two of which run 10.6.7 and one that runs 10.5.8. They are not networked together. This afternoon we had a storm and my big computer (iMac 27") was unable to retrieve my Yahoo POP mail. It has no problem retrieving mail from a BellSouth account and it can send fine on either account. So I tried the laptop that runs 10.5.8 and it downloads my Yahoo mail fine. I tried my other laptop that runs 10.6.7 and nope, it can't retrieve my Yahoo mail.
    All of the Mail settings are exactly the same. I have no idea what to try next. Suggestions?
    --Katie

    Just curious - has anyone taken this to Yahoo?  Not sure if this will get solved by a bunch of us discussing on an Apple board.  Yahoo's mode of operation in the past has been deny, deny, deny and then mysteriously, the problem gets solved without ever a mention of root cause and what they did to fix it.  My recommendation is to not burn wasted time by deleting accounts in Mac mail and then re-inoutting the settings.  This appears to have nothing to do with Mac mail and everything to do with Yahoo POP mail authentification.  I can get to Yahoo mail using only my browser since this does not require a handshake between Yahoo servers and my desktop MAC software.  Thus, it tells me there is a disconnect and the blame clearly lies with Yahoo since nothing on our MACs have changed and we are all experiencing the same problem.  Let's see if they get over their denial and mysteriously fix the problem while we sleep.  My bet is that things will work find in the morning and none of us will be credited back the $.50 for being down for a full day.  Too bad the Yahoo Mail Plus agreement doesn't come with an SLA.

    I also don't understand, but if you mean how to display only files with a certain extension in your JFileChooser then you should have a look at the JFileChooser API:
