VC++ ExampleYahoo 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 "myid@yahoo.com", and then the user name should be "myid@yahoo.com".
If you want to use SSL connection with Yahoo SMTP server, you must set the port to 465.
// The following example codes demonstrate sending email message using Yahoo SMTP server
// To get full sample projects, please download and install EASendMail on your machine.
// To run it correctly, please change SMTP server, user, password, sender, recipient value to yours
#include "stdafx.h"
#include "easendmailobj.tlh"
using namespace EASendMailObjLib;

// Set your Yahoo email address
oSmtp->FromAddr = _T("myid@yahoo.com");
// Add recipient email address
oSmtp->AddRecipientEx( _T("support@emailarchitect.net"), 0 );
// Set email subject
oSmtp->Subject = _T("simple email from Visual C++ with Yahoo account");
// Set email body
oSmtp->BodyText = _T("this is a test email sent from Visual C++ project with Yahoo");
// Yahoo SMTP server address
oSmtp->ServerAddr = _T("smtp.mail.yahoo.com");
// Because yahoo deploys SMTP server on 465 port with direct SSL connection.
// So we should change the port to 465.
oSmtp->ServerPort = 465;
// detect SSL/TLS automatically
oSmtp->SSL_init();
// For example: your email is "myid@yahoo.com", then the user should be "myid@yahoo.com"
