Click the Next button to finish setting up your email account.
In the final screen of the email account setup, Outlook Express collects your Yahoo! Mail user name and password. Enter again your full Yahoo! email address in the form "userName@yahoo.com" and type your password.
Outlook Express automatically checks the "Remember password" checkbox: this means that you will not have to re-type your password every time you need to check your Yahoo! emails. If you uncheck this box, Outlook Express will ask for your Yahoo! Mail password as needed: this option can be useful if you are using Outlook Express from a computer accessible by other people.

To make sure your Yahoo! Mail emails are available from anywhere you read them, check the Leave a copy of messages on server checkbox: this instructs Outlook Express to only download a copy of your Yahoo! emails, and leave a copy available on the mail server. This way, the emails downloaded by Outlook Express are still available from any other copy of Outlook Express that connects to this email account, and also available for anyone (yourself included) who logs on to this Yahoo! Mail account from a web browser.

Successful Yahoo! Mail Setup!
You have successfully completed setting up your Yahoo! Mail email account in Outlook Express!
Look at your inbox: Outlook Express should have already started downloading your Yahoo! emails. You will now be able to read and respond to your Yahoo! emails both from a web browser, as you did in the past, or directly from Outlook Express, along with any other email account you may already have setup in Outlook Express in the past.
