Default How do I limit the number of emails that are pulled into outlook?

Help - Outlook wants to pull all all of my email (1200) that are
saved on the server. How do I only receive todays mail and not
everything that is saved on the Yahoo server?


What I'd do would be to use a web interface to create another folder on the
server and move to it all the messages I didn't want Outlook to download.
If Outlook has never downloaded the messages before, it considers them new
even if you've downloaded them or read them with some other client (the mail
server doesn't retain that information for POP) and will download them.
