Mail Server Settings
- Mail Server Settings for Hotmail
If you are using Microsoft Outlook & the Outlook Connector, you can define your Hotmail account just like any regular POP3 email account:
- Hotmail Incoming Mail Server (POP3) – pop3.live.com (logon using Secure Password Authentification – SPA, mail server port: 995)
Hotmail Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP) – smtp.live.com (SSL enabled, port 25)
Yahoo Mail offers standard POP3 access for receiving emails incoming through your Yahoo mailbox, by using your favorite email client software. To setup your email client for working with your Yahoo account, you need to select the POP3 protocol and use the following mail server settings:
- Yahoo Incoming Mail Server (POP3) – pop.mail.yahoo.com (port 110)
- Yahoo Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP) – smtp.mail.yahoo.com (port 25)
POP Yahoo! Mail Plus email server settings
- Yahoo Plus Incoming Mail Server (POP3) – plus.pop.mail.yahoo.com (SSL enabled, port 995)
- Yahoo Plus Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP) – plus.smtp.mail.yahoo.com (SSL enabled, port 465, use authentication)
The Google GMail service offers email client access for retrieving and sending emails through your Gmail account. However, for security reasons, GMail uses POP3 over an SSL connection, so make sure your email client supports encrypted SSL connections.
- Google Gmail Incoming Mail Server (POP3) – pop.gmail.com (SSL enabled, port 995)
- Outgoing Mail Server – use the SMTP mail server address provided by your local ISP or smtp.gmail.com (SSL enabled, port 465 or 587)
The MSN email service allows you to use the MSN POP3 and SMTP servers to access your MSN mailbox.
- MSN Incoming Mail Server (POP3) – pop3.email.msn.com (port 110, using Secure Password Authentication – SPA)
- MSN Outgoing Mail Server – smtp.email.msn.com (select “My outgoing server requires authentication”)
The Lycos Mail Plus service allows you to use POP3 and SMTP servers for accessing your Lycos mailbox.
- Lycos Mail Incoming Mail Server (POP3) – pop.mail.lycos.com (port 110)
- Outgoing Mail Server – smtp.mail.lycos.com or use your local ISP SMTP mail server
The AOL email service is a web based system, designed for managing your AOL mailbox via HTTP IMAP access. Unlike Hotmail, you can use any email client to access your AOL mailbox, as long as it supports the IMAP protocol.
- AOL Incoming Mail Server (IMAP) – imap.aol.com (port 143)
- AOL Outgoing Mail Server – smtp.aol.com or use your local ISP SMTP mail server
The Mail.com email service allows you to use POP3 and SMTP servers for accessing your Mail.com mailbox.
- Mail.com Mail Incoming Mail Server (POP3) – pop1.mail.com (port 110)
- Outgoing Mail Server – use your local ISP SMTP mail server
The Netscape e-mail system is web-based, which means you can access their e-mail from any Internet connection. Netscape Internet Service also supports AOL® Communicator, Microsoft® Outlook, Microsoft® Outlook Express, and other POP3 e-mail software. The outgoing mail server needs SSL support, so make sure your email client software supports SSL connections over the SMTP protocol.
- Netscape Internet Service Incoming Mail Server (POP3) – pop.3.isp.netscape.com (port 110)
- Netscape Internet Service Outgoing Mail Server – smtp.isp.netscape.com (port 25, using a secure SSL connection)
The Tiscali email service allows you to use POP3 and SMTP servers for accessing your Tiscali mailbox.
- Tiscali Incoming Mail Server (POP3) – pop.tiscali.com (port 110)

I was wondering if you ever actually considered changing the layout of your website? Its fairly properly written; I love what youve got to say. But perhaps you could potentially a little very much in the way of articles so persons could connect with it a good deal. Youve got an awful good of text for only having just one or two images. Perhaps you can space it out greater?

Yahoo and Rediff not working properly …………???
July 20, 2013 at 6:29 pm
You can use the below details. it works 100 % for tls and non-tls connections,
* Incoming Mail Server (POP3): plus.pop.mail.yahoo.com
Use SSL, port: 995
* Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP): plus.smtp.mail.yahoo.com
Use SSL, port: 465, use authentication.
For rediff I give details only for non-tls connections.
August 6, 2013 at 6:19 pm
for rediff can u let me know the setting the above one is not working
August 7, 2013 at 11:51 am
Hi rajesh,
I have checked both the SMTP and POP are working fine for the given URL, Please let me know the client tool you are using. Mostly these are non-ssl ports, so you have to verify it first.

how to send mail from rediffmail
March 12, 2014 at 3:24 pm
how to send mail from rediffmail through C# windows Application
March 13, 2014 at 11:44 am
Hi,
I was not familear with C# coding, any how. Rediff is using Auth MTA with SSL or non-ssl communication, you have to configure valied redif email SMTP credentials in your framework. So it will use the credentials for sending emails.
Check the official link below :

Hey Anand,
Thanks for the critical info there. It worked fine for me. I set up my Yahoo account for WordPress domain, but it’s pretty slow in sending emails. Incoming works fine though.
May 7, 2015 at 11:18 pm
For rediffmail, here’s what I use in Evolution, on Ubuntu 14.04 (I think the same settings will work on Outlook, in Windows):
For receiving mail:
Server: pop.rediffmail.com
Port: 110
Encryption method: No encryption
Authentication: Password
Sending:
smtp.rediffmail.com
port: 25
Encryption: no encryption
Authentication: PLAIN

January 10, 2016 at 10:32 am
hello. I was using rediffmail earlier on android, with your settings. now on Firefox Os, there is an additional field called host name for both pop and smtp.
by the way I don’t have paid version of rediffmail, but the android access was OK.
now requesting your help
January 10, 2016 at 4:22 pm
Hello there!
Not only for FirefoxOS all the other email clients you have to specify the server hostname of your emailID, In your case SMTP host name is smtp.rediffmail.com and for pop pop.rediffmail.com, which is already mentioned in the blog.
February 24, 2016 at 3:01 am
Hello would you mind letting me know which webhost you’re using?
I’ve loaded your blog in 3 completely different browsers and I
must say this blog loads a lot faster then most. Can you recommend
a good web hosting provider at a reasonable price? Many thanks, I appreciate it!
February 24, 2016 at 8:25 pm
Hello kiersten,
This is hosted in WordPress services not managed by me.
Your question is genuine, I have worked many application,web and DB servers fine tuning. From my experience you can choose any provider but make sure the shared hosting support Varnish caching server. Or you have a choice of create a VPS and configure the following middelwares as the order of network traffic flow mentioned here Pound –> Varnish –> Nginx.
Iam sure this will make your website/Application load faster then others

November 9, 2016 at 4:54 pm
what if all of that emails in one server? is that possible?
December 29, 2016 at 1:31 pm
[…] As long as you have an account to the mail server, just knowing the smtp host and the port number seems like enough. My example here is using my Hotmail account. For other mail server settings, you can check out this useful link here. […]

July 21, 2017 at 12:46 pm
you have to use any kind of email client which support your requirement, by default the email client architecture will be every account has it own email boxs.
In other hands you can configure the email forward feature to move all the mail to one inbox,
Have you tried gmail “Accounts Import” will be a nice feature provided Gmail to get all the mails in one inbox, it will support even all the mail servers to be configure.
