There's been a lot of discussion about how to retrieve web-based mail with the K-mail client. This is actually pretty easy if your Web-based mail server supports POP mail clients. I use KMail to retrieve mail from my Yahoo account every day. In fact, I get all my mailing lists that way. It's simply a matter of setting up an account in KMail for the Yahoo mail account and then setting the correct options on your web-based Yahoo account). Here's how: Configuring your Yahoo account: ============================== Log on to your yahoo mail account and select Options. The go to the "Pop Access and Forwarding" section and select "Web and Pop Mail Access". Setting up a K-mail account to retrieve from Yahoo ================================================== In KMail, go to Settings > Configuration. Under "Incoming Mail" press "Add" to create a new account for K-mail. Specify Pop3. In the "Add Account" form just fill in your personal info (a nickname for the new account, your Yahoo logon id, password, etc...) and use the following: Host = pop.mail.yahoo.com Port = 110 You should then be able to download from your Yahoo account. Good luck, Mel __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Get email alerts & NEW webcam video instant messaging with Yahoo! Messenger http://im.yahoo.com
