I use Outlook for my emails and I have included my Yahoo email account
in Outlook following the instructions from Yahoo.  Despite entering
the account particulars in Outlook and the password but whenever
Outlook is started it does not seem to load the Yahoo email -- wrong
password.  I have double checked the password entered in Outlook and
it looks good, I even did a copy and paste.
I use Verizon DSL and also have an MSN account installed in Outlook. 
Both the Verizon and MSN email accounts load without a problem.
Is there anything I am doing wrong.
Answer  
There is no answer at this time.

You have to pay for POP access(Outlook)with Yahoo.com
You could use this http://sourceforge.net/projects/yahoopops
or sign up for a yahoo.ca account it has free POP access.

You need to pay for Yahoo mail to work with outlook.
The service has changed and a lot of other service providers have 
done the same!!
  Yahoo is about $20 a year, pay for it and it will work with outlook.
Hope this answers your question, msn and hotmail and netscape will
not work either for new users. If some day you have to restore your
computer, your msn may not work because you were grandfathered in!
Have a good day,

if you use "yahoo.com.cn" 
you can recieve and send mail free by client software via pop and smtp.
smtp: smtp.mail.yahoo.com
POP3: pop.mail.yahoo.com

To have yahoo work with your outlook for free, you just have to go to
your account, subscribe to a sponsor (1 or more, they don't send that
much pubs) and you are up and running

Hi jegajothy-ga!

First of all outlook is from microsoft community.. so you need to test
few thing before. do create a hotmail account and send an email and
set your outlook setting for the hotmail. I am sure it will do. I have
done it so many times. second thing is what outlook version you are
using. do ask your dsl provider about the smtp setting , I am sure
that you will find your solutions by going through these solutions
