Setting up Yahoo mail on Blackberry... Help!!!

First time user to blackberry and was trying to setup email on it... Gmail was very quick, but yahoo just won't setup. I tried the help desk of the network provider (Batelco in Bahrain). They have told me that to get Yahoo on Blackberry you need to subscribe to the premium service Yahoo Plus ($20 per year). Please confirm if this is true, none of the support forums on Yahoo suggest that you need to subscribe to Plus to get access

Vinit, Greetings, and welcome to the BlackBerry.com Support Forums.
Not true. The free version of Yahoo mail works perfectly fine on the BlackBerry.

How do I set up yahoo mail on my iPad?

I have an iPad 2 and an iPhone 4S. I set up yahoo mail on both and have never had an issue. I recently got an iPad Mini. I've attempted to set up yahoo mail with the same settings I have on my iPad 2 and iPhone 4S. After several weeks and countless attempts, it still doesn't work. What's the secret?

From your home screen tap Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars, then select Yahoo.

Cant install yahoo mail for blackberry

Hi
Im trying to install the yahoo mail for blackberry from blackberry.com/yahoo/mail
but I always get this error message
"Please use your blackberry device to access this site.
Desktop browser not supported."
its weird because I am using my blackberry device.
I have a Curve 8520.
Any Ideas on what is causing this problem?
thank you

Hmmm...quite strange...
I suggest the following steps:
1) Register HRT
Homescreen > Options > Advanced Options > Host Routing Table > BBKey (it does not matter which line is current) > Register Now
2) Resend Service Books
KB02830 Send the service books for the BlackBerry Internet Service
3) Batt Pull Reboot
Anytime random strange behavior or sluggishness creeps in, the first thing to do is a battery pop reboot. With power ON, remove the back cover and pull out the battery. Wait about a minute then replace the battery and cover. Power up and wait patiently through the long reboot -- ~5 minutes. See if things have returned to good operation. Like all computing devices, BB's suffer from memory leaks and such...with a hard reboot being the best cure.
Hopefully that will get things going again for you!

When you set it up, under settings, Add Account but don't select "yahoo!" select "Other" instead and then set it up...
Incoming Server - imap.mail.yahoo.com
Outgoing Server - smtp.mail.yahoo.com
Incoming Port - 993 (requires SSL)
Outgoing Port - 465 (requires SSL/TLS)
Username: full email address (example: [email protected])
Password: the password you login to Yahoo with.

it should works, if you use the following parameters:
Smtp server: smtp.mail.yahoo.com:465
User Secure connection: SSL
I'll bet you it will NOT work & even give you 10 to 1 odds that it will fail.
Yahoo won't relay your spam; which is why your messages will be rejected.
What is the difference between your message & a message from a spammer?

Setting up Yahoo Mail Plus account?

I recently purchased my first Mac Book Pro. I use Yahoo Mail Plus as my email account. At the Apple store they were unable to set my email up so that I could access it through the Mac mail app. I have to access it through my Yahoo browser. Yahoo has been no help and so far 3 customer service people at the Apple store have failed. Any suggestions??

after reading how free accounts works fine and plus accounts tends not to, i think its safe to say this is a yahoo problem. the iphone yahoo wizard is probably meant for free accounts, but plus accounts are setup differently.

Problem setting up Yahoo Mail Plus

I am in the process of transitioning from Entourage to Apple Mail. I have successfully imported all of the mail from Entourage and have successfully set up my Gmail account in Mail. I am trying to set up my Yahoo Plus account (POP3) but when I get to the Outbound Mail Server screen, set up gets stuck.
I put in all of the smtp information along with my ID and password and I set the SSL and proper port check boxes that matches the Entourage account information but I just get a spinning gear and a message that Mail is trying to contact to the server but it never does.
I spent about an hour in a chat session with Yahoo tech support last night. They checked all of my settings and checked my account access via telnet and verified that everything is working fine. They have escalated this within their support organization but so far I have not heard anything from them.
The strange thing is that my Blackberry is sending and receiving my Yahoo mail without any problems and it was working fine with Entourage. I turned off the Entourage syncing to make sure the two desktop apps weren't hitting up against each other but that made no difference.
Has anyone else run into this issue and/or any suggestions on where to look next for a solution?
Thanks,
David

Hi. my English is very bad. sorry.
use "Mail 4.0" i configure yahoo account (free) and gmail too. and work perfect. first you need to configure yahoo account for access to pop (this is in you web account in config on yahoo.) and in Mail (app) only you need start and introduce your account ej.:
[email protected] and password.
the programs send message error. click continue and put in smtp.: "smtp.mial.yahoo.com"
and pop: "pop.mail.yahoo.com"
for gmail is: "smtp.gmial.com" and pop: "pop.gmial.com"
if you need more detail send me email.
good lock

Not able to set up yahoo mail account : N8

I bought N8 just few days back.
I can able to set up Gmail account but not able to set up yahoo account.
It shows error:
Unable to connect with information provided. Try again ...
Please help..

I think you require a plus account to download mail to an email client incl a mobile phone, saying that though last year if you're in the UK you could download Yahoo mail without a plus account & I still do even though the Yahoo help pages say I require a paid account.
It may be that your username & password are incorrect or the settings are,
Here's what I have:
pop.mail.yahoo.co.uk, port 995, SSL on.
smtp.mail.yahoo.co.uk port 465, SSL on.
Username is the usual - bit before the @.
Passwords might be case sensitive.

Hello all.
I just bought a 5800 Express Music and am very new to the world of mobile phones.
I have had a Yahoo Mail account for the last ten years and would like to be able to access it
throught the phone's email system.
This is what I've done:
In Settings Wizard, click Email Setup.
-Phone says "Allow application to use network to send or receive data?"
-I say "yes".
-Phone says "Testing network", then "Contacting email server".
-Phone gives me a screen with Yahoo, Gmail, Ovi etc.
-I click on Yahoo, then write my Yahoo email address.
-Phone says "Getting email settings", then "Unable to connect with the information provided. Please try again".
What am I doing wrong? Any ideas would be gratefully received.
Thanks,
Mark.

Setting up yahoo mail

Hi All,
I deleted my yahoo email account on my iphone 5 as Yahoo mail has been down all week.
Tried to set it back up again but it gives me the message "the user name or password for apple.imap.mail.yahoo.com is incorrect"
This is not so as I've got it working now on my imac.
Any help appreciated

I doubt this is anything other than Yahoo!'s problem. People have been having sporatic results connecting from various locations and devices when it seems to work from others.
Unfortunately, I think you are just going to have to wait out the storm.

Setting Up Yahoo Mail on Mac email

Hi..i just got a mac and i am wondering how i set up my mail to recieve my mail from my yahoo account. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

No, the only mail accounts available from Apple are the the .Mac accounts and that's about $100 a year, but includes everything available on .Mac.
You can set up the account that your ISP usually provides with your internet account with Mail.app. From inside Mail.app you can access the Mail Help in the Help Menu that can guide you through setting up email accounts to access with Mail.app

How do i set up yahoo mail beta account on mail app?

Hi everyone!
I would like to set up my yahoo mail beta account in the Mail application. How do I do it correctly?
I've already try it once, but I was only able to receive e-mails not send them. Does someone already has this problem?
Can someone help me please?! I really don't want to use my browser to check my e-mails.
Thanks!

If you're using Yahoo Plus, you have access to Yahoo's POP3 server, so can use the normal Yahoo detected settings. Otherwise, there appears to be IMAP access:
http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=325139
The important thing is imap-ssl.mail.yahoo.com on port 993.
...I've already try it once, but I was only able to receive e-mails not send them...
And SMTP is also SSL for Yahoo, so set the appropriate checkboxes.
I have configured OSX mail and Outlook and can send mail.
My experience is that IMAP-SSL access seems to be a bit slow. But I also have a a large number of folders in my inbox so perhaps if your inbox is kept "clean" and with few messages, perhaps your experience will be better.
