You did a lot better than I did!  I could never get a single Yahoo bizmail account to work in Outlook.com.

This is infuriating.  I have four email accounts at yahoo small business. Myself and three others. When I went to outlook.com to set mine up it worked just fine. Took the standard pop.bizmail.yahoo.com server address, etc.  When I went to do the next one, even on the same computer, it would not login to the pop3 server. Out of the four accounts I have only been able to set my own up.

Mark, thanks for getting back to me.  I think I will try one last time by contacting Yahoo as I have their Mail Plus email account.  If that does not work, I too will give up.  Too bad.  I liked using Outlook.

I finally gave up on trying to get Outlook.com to work with Yahoo business e-mail (bizmail).  I don't think Microsoft likes Yahoo any more than it likes Google and Apple...
