Changing Outlook to Yahoo Email Client

I'm using my yahoo for all emails on windows 7 but when I want to send a web page link or page itself, my computer displays "outlook." I went to internet properties and programs, but windows 7 does not have a menu of "drop down" email to set Yahoo as my default pop server settings. How can I set up Yahoo for all emails?

Thank you!

Make Yahoo default email involves the use of the Yahoo toolbar.  It is supposed to include a small application that puts Yahoo email as a selection to use under "Internet Properties | Programs | Email '; This section does not exist under Vista or Windows 7, it has been replaced by "Control Panel |" Default programs | Set your default programs.  The theory would be that, after installing the toolbar, Yahoo, Yahoo Mail would become selectable from the default programs as the default e-mail client.  What I've read, this does NOT happen and the Yahoo App toolbar must be updatd to accommodate both Vista and Windows 7.  Since you have an AT & T/Yahoo account, you can use Outlook, Windows Live Mail, Thunderbird, etc. using these account settings:

    Whenever I restart my computer, Outlook Express offers compact my files. How to make it in mind that it is the own business. I use Outlook as my email client.

    Hi jpboyt,

    I suggest you try the steps suggested by Steve Winograd, of the following link and check if this can help:

    To free up disk space, Outlook Express can compact messages. This can take up to a few minutes.

    Important: This section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you proceed with caution. For added protection, back up the registry before you edit it. Then you can restore the registry if a problem occurs.

  • Why Microsoft isn't an option in their email clients (Outlook, Outlook Express, Live Mail, hot Mail) block IP addresses that send spam?

    Why Microsoft isn't an option in their email clients (Outlook, Outlook Express, Live Mail, hot Mail) block IP addresses that send spam?

    Looks like something aside server.  Not to mention that change IPs and when you go to IPv6, the whole game changes.

    What email client you use that gives you this option now?

    You can block entire domains...  (Outlook in any case, not sure about the rest.)

  • I need an email client with distinct identities that are compatible with Vista.

    I could not upgrade to Vista XP, because I need an e-mail with a SEPARATE identity client.

    Now 7 will come out tomorrow and no solution in sight.

    I see dozens of customers and have seven POP separate accounts on my PC, directly related to different customers.

    It is essential to maintain a complete separation between the e-mail accounts. Often the transmissions are delicate or confidential.

    I tried to use Windows Mail, as a test on a second PC, but there is no way to maintain a clear distinction and separation between email accounts. It is too easy to send to the wrong account, at the wrong time, causing incredible embarrassment and set up the possibility of putting at risk the confidentiality of the customer.

    I can't believe that Microsoft rejected arbitrarily Outlook Express, without any real consideration for users who have a specific need for a separate identity.

    Is there a solution? Is there a mail client that works with Vista and 7, with the possibility for a SEPARATE identity?

    Help!

    Microsoft Outlook is an email client that works with Vista and 7, with the possibility for a SEPARATE identity.  It is not free, but it does what you want.

    I hope that's not too simplistic.  :-)

  • My font size changed in Firefox when you try to read email using yahoo email. I now have to use explore to read my mail. can you tell me how to go back to the police the readable size. Thank you

    I use firefox for years to read my mail. recently, the size of the text became small and difficult to read. I would get the large text size once again, so I don't have to use the other browser. I have an att yahoo email account and subscribe at & t uverse for the internet service.

    • In the menu bar of Firefox: Tools-> Options-> content, here to set your favorite font sizes.
    • From the upper-left corner of my.yahoo.com, look for a "Thèmes" item under the 'My' tab In this option, you can select the size of Yahoo-specific fonts.

    Somehow I signed up for Outlook, I was very happy with Firefox.  Now all my new email is sent to Outlook, but I was able to transfer my address book and records.  So, I need to check my new emails on an account and deal with the files on the other.  How can I change so all my email goes to Firefox?

    There is absolutely no way that you can use Outlook accidentally.  You do not have to 'sign up' for Outlook.  Outlook is an e-mail client that will not run unless you execute it deliberately.

  • Can I set Firefox as my windows 7 default email client?

    I already have Firefox program etc. email mailto/send to Gmail, but I also want to put the Windows 7 default email client to use FireFox (who knows how to use gmail). For example, when in Windows Photo Viewer, I click on "send" and then "join" I get an error: ' is it no no by default, either the current client email client cannot meet the demand for e-mail. " Please run Microsoft Outlook and set it as the default e-mail client"what is the equivalent means to run FireFox and set it as default Windows 7 client? I want my OS by default e-mail to open Firefox and then use the e-mail settings already the installer of FireFox.

    For example, == when in Windows Photo Viewer, I click on "e-mail" and then "attach".

    No, you cannot because Firefox is not a mail client. SeaMonkey has a built in email client that you can use
