Can I quickly download all of my yahoo mail to my computer hard drive without doing it one mail at a time?

Question

I want to have a back up for now because I am going to need to make some hard copies in the future. I do not want to risk losing my mail.

Answer 1

There is a program called YPops that you can download from sourceforge.net/projects/yahoopops/. This program can be used to download Yahoo mail to a local email client such as Outlook Express, Outlook, etc. Install the program, open your email client, follow the directions from the YPops program on configuring the email account, then download all your emails.
