Gmail and Yahoo for E51

I was trying to configure gmail for my E51, and was running into some issues. So i got on to my GOD ( aka google) , but somehow this piece of information i did not find them all at the same place. So after a lot of cross blog, cross forum readings i have collated the info not only for others but also for me to look back in future

Connection Settings > Incoming E-Mail
User name: Enter your complete Gmail e-mail address including ‘@gmail.com’
Password: Enter your Password
Incoming Mail Server: imap.gmail.com
Access Point in Use: Select the active data connection
Mailbox Name: Gmail
Mailbox Type: IMAP4
Security (ports): SSL/TLS
Port: Default

Connection Settings > Outgoing E-Mail
My e-mail address: Enter your complete Gmail e-mail address including ‘@gmail.com’
User name: Again enter your complete Gmail e-mail address including ‘@gmail.com’
Password: Enter your password
Outgoing Mail Server: smtp.gmail.com
Access Point in Use: Select the active data connection
Security (ports): StartTLS
Port: 587

I think the other details such as User Settings,Retrieval Settings & Automatic Retrieval are fairly simple and you can choose your config.
Incase you want to configure Yahoo ( not Plus or Premium) just make the following changes -
incoming mail server : imap.mail.yahoo.com
outgoing mail server : smtp.mobile.yahoo.com

And make sure that for email just enter your yahoo user name only (without '@yahoo.com)

****UPDATE****

While the gmail setting works perfect, yahoo settings run into trouble. You amy safely download the Yahoo GO( which is slow) or consider installing opera mini , but nothing beats the inbuilt browser of E 51
