Setting up Yahoo.pl for an iPhone
In this post I will try to demonstrate how to setup Yahoo.pl using IMAP and SMTP in a straightforward way...
What is Yahoo.pl
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.pl
Mail can find the settings automatically then configure your account. Follow these steps first in order to see if that is possible:
- Open Settings, then Mail then tap Accounts.
- Tap Add Account, then Other and tap Add Mail Account.
- Type in your name (can be any name), your email address, your password then a description for your account.
- Click Next. The Mail app will now try to find the email configuration and complete your account setup. If the Mail app finds your email configuration, click Done to finish your setup.
If the Mail app can't automatically set up your account, then you will need to enter them yourself. You will need the following information:
