I had the same question as Kat. And, I thought about uninstalling it
but I don't know how to get all my email from my inbox back to my
yahoo inbox. Can you help me on this?
The issue is that if you''re using a POP account, it's a one-way door.
Messages flow from the server to the client and cannot go back the other
way. The only way to get local messages back to the server is to forward
them to your account on that server and then they'll look like they came
from you and not the original sender. Conceivably you can forward them as
attachments, which will leave the original message intact, but the problem
then lies in getting the attachment loaded back into the server's data store
and I don't know if that's possible on Yahoo.
I've tried changing the incoming pop3 settings so it can't bring the
emails right back to outlook if I "forward" them, but that didn't
work.
Define "didn't work". If you disable receiving for the account in the
Send/Receive Group, Outlook won't re-download the messages you're forwarding
to yourself.
If I uninstall before getting my emails back to yahoo, do I lose all
of them?
Technically you won't lose them, but you won't have any way to access them,
so effectively they're lost.
One more thing, I have the box checked to save on the server but I
don't know how to get to them to maybe get THEM back to yahoo!???
If you've had that option enabled on the server all aloong, then you don't
have to get them back to Yahoo. They're already there. Have you logged
into the web interface for Yahoo and looked in your Inbox?
