This document provides instructions for sending email from a VB.NET application using Yahoo's SMTP server. It explains that Yahoo's SMTP server address is smtp.mail.yahoo.com and supports normal and SSL connections for authentication. The user name should be the sender's full Yahoo email address. It provides code samples to send email over SSL on port 465 or TLS on port 25/587, using the EASendMail component and specifying the SMTP server, sender/recipient addresses, authentication credentials, and SSL settings.

Visual Basic.NET - Send Email using Yahoo Account

Yahoo SMTP server address is "smtp.mail.yahoo.com". It supports both Normal and SSL
connection to do user authentication, and you should use your Yahoo email address as the user
name for ESMTP authentication. For example: your email is "[email protected]", and then the
user name should be "[email protected]".

If you want to use SSL connection with Yahoo SMTP server, you must set the port to 465. The
following example codes demonstrate how to send email using Yahoo SMTP server.

end Email using Yahoo in VB.NET
Date: Oct 14, 2013

In previous section,I introduced how to send email using Gmail account. In this section, I will
introduce how to send email using Yahoo account in VB.NET.

Yahoo SMTP server address is "smtp.mail.yahoo.com". It supports both Normal/Implicit


SSL/Explicit SSL (TLS) connection to do user authentication, and you should use your Yahoo
email address as the user name for ESMTP authentication. For example: your email is
"[email protected]", and then the user name should be "[email protected]".

If you want to use implicit SSL connection with Yahoo SMTP server, you must set the port to
465.

Remarks: All of samples in this section are based on first section: Send email in a simple
VB.NET project. To compile and run the following example codes successfully, please
click here to learn how to create the test project and add reference of EASendMail to your
project.

[VB.NET - Send Email using Yahoo over Implicit SSL on 465 Port - Example]
