Briefly, yes. You will need an interface program. OE is an email client, whereas Yahoo and hotmail are web-based... when you are looking at your mail in those two all you are doing is looking at just another webpage, albeit one you need a password for. For Yahoo interfacing, try YPops.

you will not be able to use Yahoo in outlook. UNLESS you have a premium Yahoo account, hotmail and gmail and you ISP account can be used.

er, bobby.... I use YPOPS! to run my free Yahoo email ac from OE... :)
It quietly downloads mail from yahoo whenever I open OE, deletes read mail as I delete it from OE, and sends my mail out through Yahoo.
I believe there is another interface pgm out there for hotmail.. but I don't use hotmail, so...
