If you pay for Yahoo.com, they probably tell you what are those servers.
If you are using a freebie Yahoo.com account then you don't get access
to their POP3 and SMTP mail hosts even if you know what they are (i.e.,
your authentication will fail because you don't have an account with
them). You did not mention WHICH Yahoo provider you are trying to use.
There are regional Yahoo providers with com.uk and com.au that, last I
heard, still offer POP3 and SMTP server access for freebie accounts.

If you want to use Yahoo.com, look into using YahooPOPs.

thankyou.
what a shame!
I am using a freebie yahoo mail.
oh..........

Not sure how Yahoo is set up in the Aisan Pacific region for free addresses and pop3 mail retrieval, but login to your Yahoo mail account via yahoo.com, and look in the 'options/mail options' section for a Pop and Forwarding selection. If not present,the options section may have a link to mail upgrade(for comparison purposes fee based-in the U.S. is $20 per year).
