    Can I forward email from my Yahoo account to MSN?
    « on: August 21, 2008, 03:26:16 AM »
    I am tired of Yahoo and would like to start a MSN account. It would be too complicated to drop/change my Yahoo email. Is there a way to forward mail to the other account? What if I were to reply to that email, which browser does it go through?

    I had a look at the Yahoo Mail Options for my Yahoo Account and it appears you can only forward emails from Yahoo to another Email Service if you have a Yahoo Premium account (pay for it).

    There is another way that might work....

    If you sync Outlook/Windows Mail, etc, to retrieve your Yahoo! emails, can't you set it to forward your emails to Hotmail? ???

    Just a suggestion....

    I believe that also requires a Yahoo Premium account.

    I don't know if YahooPOPS! still works but apparently it's still alive.

    It is supposed to allow one to bypass the free POP3 access restriction that yahoo placed.

    Why not just DLoad and install Thunderbird (FREE) and use it to manage both accounts ? ?

      I had thunderbird, but there were too many problems with it.

          Ahah!

          I just checked my very old Yahoo email account (my first email account ~7 years ago) and I can use the forwarding feature.

            So maybe if we get a time machine, and go back in time we can create a new account and have the forwarding feature. ;D ;D
