How do I set up Yahoo! Mail alerts?
To set up Yahoo! Mail alerts, you first need to register your phone with Yahoo! Mobile or select the phone if you have already registered it. Right-click* this link and select the option to open a new window. Sign in if necessary. A Yahoo! Mobile page will open about creating alerts on your mobile device. The following situations can apply:
•I don't have a phone registered.
•I have an additional phone that I want to register.
•I want to select one of my registered phones or devices.
Click one of the three links in the list that applies to your situation. The link will open further instructions tailored for that situation.
You will be asked to register your mobile phone if you haven't registered it already. Yahoo! will not use your mobile number for marketing purposes unless you’ve given us permission to do so elsewhere.
The full list of available alerts is at Yahoo! Alerts.
* For Apple Macintosh, use control-click
