Yahoo On Galaxy

[whatwhat]

Hi, I've just got my new phone. A galaxy 3. Have tried to link my emails, but it says I have wrong user name or password. I have tried both looking up yahoo on Google, and they are correct, just dont seem to work on phone! Any ideas? I've looked in manual set up, but all looks a bit complicated!!! Tia

Presumably you are looking to use POP or IMAP connection to access Yahoo Mail. If so these instructions may help for setting up IMAP (source http://mobile.yahoo.com/mail/android;_ylt=AhzrKdlRgrlzaWufnuGSnuBatQcJ) :-

On your phone, press < Home >, then open the Email application.
On the 'Your accounts' page, select Next to get started with setup.
Enter your full Yahoo! address and password, then select Next.
On the next screen, you can give the account a nickname and choose the name to display on your outgoing messages. Tap Done.

If prompted, supply the following information:
Incoming Server - imap.mail.yahoo.com
Outgoing Server - smtp.mail.yahoo.com
Incoming Port - 993 (requires SSL)
Outgoing Port - 465 (requires SSL)
Username: full email address (e.g. [email protected])
Password: is the password you login to Yahoo! with
