What is Yahoo.no

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

Setting up Yahoo.no

It is possible that the Mail app will find the configuration automatically, then configure your account. Follow these steps in order to try:

  1. Open Settings, then Mail, and tap Accounts
  2. Tap Add Account > Other, and tap Add Mail Account.
  3. Type your name (can be any name), email address, your password then a description for account
  4. Tap Next. Mail will now try to find the email parameters and finish setting your account. If the Mail app finds your email parameter, tap Done to finish your account setup.

If Mail couldn't find your e-mail settings, it means that you will have to enter them yourself. You will need the following information:

  2. Enter the details (You may want to take a look at the table above) for Incoming Mail Server and Outgoing Mail Server. Then tap Next
  3. If the mail configuration is correct, click Save to finish the setup. If the mail setup is incorrect, the Mail app will ask you to modify them
  4. In case you still can't set up the account or store your settings, contact Yahoo.no.
