The outgoing and incoming host names are likely to be the SMTP and POP servers. In Outlook (depending on the version), you would go to TOOLS and EMAIL ACCOUNTS, then highlight the account, and click properties or change. It should show you incoming and outgoing servers. The username is probably your email address, but might just be the name before the ‘@’ symbol (but it should be the same as the username in the Outlook settings). I am not sure what it is looking for when you say web address.
Easy way to do this is to open Outlook to the email accounts page I mentioned above and then call either AT&T Wireless tech support or Apple (I don’t know who supports them, whether it’s Cingular/AT&T or if it’s Apple). Tell them what you’re trying to do, that you have all your settings from Outlook in front of you, and that you just need to be walked thru it.
•When using Microsoft Outlook, replace the “@” in your address with “%”.
The following steps will help you find the POP settings for your Yahoo! Mail account and configure it:
1.Log onto your Yahoo! Mail account from a PC.
2.Click Options > Mail Options.
3.Click POP & Forwarding.
4.Click Set up or edit POP & Forwarding.
5.Click POP Settings.
6.Note your Server Setting information. Your phone email client or application will ask for these settings:
?Incoming Mail Server (POP3)— for example, pop.mail.yahoo.com.
?Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP)— for example, smtp.mail.yahoo.com.
?Account Name/Username, your Yahoo! Member ID— for example, myuserID.
?Email address, your Yahoo! Mail address— for example, myuserID@yahoo.com.
?Password, your Yahoo! Mail password— for example, l0ngitudin*l
Notes:
•POP server settings may change from time to time and you should confirm the current POP server settings in Yahoo! Mail if it is not working.
