Setting up Yahoo.lv for your iPhone
In this article we will try to summarize setting up Yahoo.lv using IMAP and SMTP in a straightforward way...
History of Yahoo.lv:
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 set up Yahoo.lv:
It is possible that Mail will find the email parameters itself, then complete setting up your account. Follow the following steps first to try:
- Open Settings, then Mail, then tap Accounts.
- Click Add Account, then Other, and click Add Mail Account.
- Type in your name, your email address, password then a description for account.
- Click Next. Mail will now try and find the email parameters and set up your account. If Mail finds the e-mail configuration, tap Done to complete your setup.
If Mail can't find your email settings, it means that you will need to enter them yourself. You will find the following table useful:
Incoming Mail Server (IMAP) Setup
Server Hostname | imap.mail.yahoo.com |
Server Port | 993 |
Username | Your username (do not include the part after the @ sign) |
Authentication | Password |
SSL/TLS | Yes |
Outgoing Mail Server Configuration
Server Hostname | smtp.mail.yahoo.com |
Server Port | 465 |
Username | Your username (do not include the part after the @ sign) |
Authentication | Password |
SSL/TLS | Yes |
Tap Next, then follow these steps:
- Choose either IMAP or POP for your new account. If you aren't certain which one to opt for, contact Yahoo.lv.
- Enter the information (You may want to take a look at the table above) for Incoming Mail Server and Outgoing Mail Server. Then tap Next
- If the email settings are correct, click Save to finish the setup. If the email settings are incorrect, the Mail app will ask you to edit them
- If you still aren't able to configure the email account, or store the email settings, contact Yahoo.lv.
