First, a few words about Yahoo.it:

Yahoo! Mail is an email service launched on October 8, 1997, by the American company Yahoo, Inc. It offers four different email plans: three for personal use (Basic, Plus, and Ad Free) and another for businesses. As of January 2020, Yahoo! Mail has 225 million users. Users are able to access and manage their mailboxes using webmail interface, accessible using a standard web browser. Some accounts also supported the use of standard mail protocols (POP3 and SMTP). Since 2015, users can also connect non-Yahoo e-mail accounts to the webmail client. Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yahoo!_Mail

How to configure Yahoo.it:

  1. On your Android phone or tablet, open the Gmail app.
  2. In the top right, tap your profile picture.
  3. Tap Add another account.
  4. Choose the type of account you want to add:
    • If you check work or school emails through Outlook for Windows, select Outlook, Hotmail, and Live.

  5. Enter your email address and tap Next.

Incoming E-mail Server Configuration

  1. Choose the type of e-mail account (either POP3 or IMAP) you want to use. Not all services provide both protocols. Refer to the information below for the correct protocols.
    • IMAP will store the e-mails on the server, and it will show a copy on your device. IMAP is the recommended protocol for almost all users.
    • POP3 downloads the emails from the remote server and it will keep them on your device.
  2. Type the password for your mail address and click Next.
  3. Please see the table below to complete the Incoming Server Settings.
  4. Click Next. If you see an error, click Edit Settings.
