How do I set Yahoo as my email provider in Internet Explorer. It only gives me the option to chose Outlook?

I use Coral Draw to manage my family photos and to have them automatically reduced and put into JPEG format I have to have a set email program. When I go to tools/programs in IE to set an email program all it gives me is Outlook or Express as my options for my email handling. How to I get IE to reconize Yahoo as my program??

This can be done but u cant do it urself. To do this u shall hv to download yahoo messenger 7.5 and then update it. Yahoo will prompt u to update it. During update Yahoo will ask u to set Yahoo mail as ur default mail. Then say yes and Yahoo will do it for u. This is how I did it. U can also do this way.
Reply:open internet explorer and go to tools and then internet options and then write www.mail.yahoo.com and click OK


next time when ever u launch explorer u will see ur mail.yahoo.com as home page, u can also use shortcut --- alt + home to get this page anytime to check e-mails

Reply:Click tools, then click program tab, and for mail type yahoo mail. I would sign up for yahoo email first then do this. Although don't know if it matters which comes first
Reply:the erason it only gives you outlook is because that's the only E-mail program that you have installed on your computer.





No since yahoo mail is not a program, but just service provided over some browser, you can't set to be "your default" e-mail client.
Reply:This option is for programs installed on the local computer. As yahoo is an internet based email and requires no local software you cant set it up this way. Leave it as outlook express then just work on your pictures. When you are ready to email then log in to yahoo and attach the photos from there


Hope this helps
Reply:They used to have a direct download through their help pages but that page doesn't seem to work anymore. What worked for me was downloading Yahoo Messenger with all the extra features. (choose Typical Install) Once I installed it the new option of Yahoo Mail shows in my Internet Options.
Reply:The E-Mail program option in IE is for specifying your local mail software (like Eudora or Outlook).





If you pay for Yahoo Plus ($30/ per year), you can set up your Yahoo account as a POP3 account and access Yahoo mail through a local mail software like Eudora or Outlook.





If all you want is to get to Yahoo mail when you open IE, the you can set it up as the Home Page (under Internet Options) as a previous poster had suggested.
