I don't believe you can use yahoo as your email account.

Set your ISP settings to GPRS

I don't know if yahoo is POP3 or IMAP4, i'm sure someone will.

Then you'll have to get the email settings from yahoo such as the sending host and port, as well as the receiving host and port.

Yahoo's a POP3 server.

Hosts are easy, pop.yahoo.com and smtp.yahoo.com. Ports stay the same, ID and PW are from the Yahoo account.

Shoot me a PM with your phone model, and we'll confirm your settings.

There is not a way to send a message without usage, unless you browse the net and hit the webpage for Yahoo Mail; but you're using web KBs then... 🤭 😢
