    How do I set up my Yahoo email account in HousiniESQ?

    You have to be a Yahoo! Mail Plus member ($19.99/year) to use HoudiniESQ to access your Yahoo email account.

    Yahoo supports POP3 only, we don't recommend our users to use Yahoo account. Free Gmail account will work better with HoudiniESQ.

    In Edit Email Setup window, select Yahoo, and enter your yahoo username (without @yahoo.com) in the user field, enter your password in the Password field. Click Test Email button, click Save button after it passes the test. You should start to receive your email from your Yahoo account in about 5 minutes.
