Is it possible to push email from Yahoo?

Hi,
I have never had push mail facilities before. Can anyone confirm whether it is possible to get notification from a yahoo email account? I do not have an email plus account.
I have tried to configure my T-mobile MDA Vario III to do this but it does not recognise either my user name or password when prompted. Am I just trying the impossible, I ask as I read somewhere that it can not configure hotmail accounts and Yahoo is obviously a web email account.
Any assistance would be appreciated.

This should answer all your questions.

I don't know if you can setup true 'push' email from Yahoo, but what you can do is go to the main email screen, tap 'New Email Account', type in your Yahoo email address, and just follow the prompts. You can set it up to automatically pick up your email every 5 minutes, 10 minutes, whatever you want. Hope that helps.

Check the link in my post above yours. That properly answers his question.

As TB says, Yahoo GO is the push solution - but it doesnt interact properly with the devices messaging client - so if you dont like the yahoo go app (I hate it), then do what RW said (but make sure you have the account enabled for pop (which you set up easily in the yahoo webmail client).

If you can forward your incoming yahoo mail to another account, you could use a Exchange Push Mail solution like the one I offer to push your yahoo mail to your device.

Yahoo Mail supports IMAP. Not true Push IMAP, but it is pretty close. You can simply set it up to sync your inbox often, if you can afford the data charges.

Xpress Mail problem

Hi All,
Can someone please tell me why I keep getting this screen pop-up once a day as I haven't changed my password on the Yahoo account? I've been using Xpress Mail to push my Yahoo mails for the last few months, but never had this screen pop-up asking me to input my password!

when i get an email, it wants to reply to ALL!?!?

hi there,
i am using a free push email service from mail2web.com.
lets say i send someone an email from my gmail account on my computer...
the person gets it and replies...
i get the email on my computer and on my phone...
when i want to reply though, i only have the option of replying to ALL?!
the phone then sends the email to me and the person i am replying too?
not only is it annoying to get your own mail all the time, the receiver of my mail is getting the mail2web email address and not mine?!
do i make sense? i hope i explained it correctly?
thanks

Assuming you are using ActiveSync - there is an advanced section in the email sync settings that allows you to enter your email address. I have done this and the 'Reply All' does not include my own email address.
Open ActiveSync
Click Menu>Options>Select Email>Settings>Advanced - then enter your email address...See if that works

thanks for the help...it fixed it to 50%...i still have the problem that the recipient gets my push email address and not the email address i want him to get...
thanks

worked like a charm thx!

[Q] Email notifications

Hey guys
Wondering if anyone can help me out. Running CM6 on my N1 and finding that I get constant email notifications on my Exchange email accounts. If I really receive 5 emails I get at least 3 sound notifications instead of just one for new mail.
The Gmail account has a setting for 'Notify once' to only notify on first new email instead of each, but this setting doesn't appear to be available for Exchange email accounts in the stock mail app.
Does anyone have a solution/ideas?
Thanks.

Nobody else?
Maybe i'm the only one with this problem...?

[Q] Xperia Z Email

hi, just wondering can someone with an Xperia Z answer a Q for me, when receiving an email does it get sent to the phone straight away like my iphone does or is it like older android phones and only options to check for email every 5/10/15 mins etc? Thanks

that depends on which type of email account you set up.
gmail supports push-email. that means, the server contacts your phone and you'll receive in almost in realtime. second one is an pop3 / imap account, normally every mail account except gmail works with these protocols. this means your old-fashioned way of checking for new mail in periods. I don't know, what it is about exchange... anybody else?

Exchange
iirc, Exchange accounts can be configured to use push, if the server has it enabled.

thanks for the answers guys, was just wondering because I used BT email powered by yahoo on my iphone and got emails right away, yet on my HTC Wildfire (downgrade, yes I know) its only every 15 mins. so it should work fine when i get a Z. Thanks

i have a btinternet account and only get my mail when the phone checks every 15 mins or whatever i set it to, does not seem to give push email
