Yahoo! IMAP (imap.mail.yahoo.com)

(from Wikipedia)

It is possible to get direct IMAP access without signing up for paid access nor using software like YPOPs! or FreePOPs. Yahoo! operates IMAP and secure IMAP servers (imap.mail.yahoo.com in particular), which are globally accessible. However they require a specific, non-standard IMAP command to be sent before login is done, namely: “ID ("GUID" "1")”.

This example demonstrates sending the non-standard IMAP command after connecting but before login. Android™

// Important: Don't forget to include the call to System.loadLibrary
// as shown at the bottom of this code sample.
package com.test;

import android.app.Activity;
import com.chilkatsoft.*;

import android.widget.TextView;
import android.os.Bundle;

public class SimpleActivity extends Activity {

  private static final String TAG = "Chilkat";

  // Called when the activity is first created.
  @Override
  public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

    boolean success = false;

    // This example assumes the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
    // See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

    CkImap imap = new CkImap();

    // Connect to they Yahoo! IMAP server.
    imap.put_Port(993);
    imap.put_Ssl(true);
    success = imap.Connect("imap.mail.yahoo.com");
    if (success != true) {
        Log.i(TAG, imap.lastErrorText());
        return;
        }

    // Send the non-standard ID command...
    String rawResponse;
    rawResponse = imap.sendRawCommand("ID (\"GUID\" \"1\")");
    if (imap.get_LastMethodSuccess() != true) {
        Log.i(TAG, imap.lastErrorText());
        return;
        }

    // Login
    success = imap.Login("myLogin","myPassword");
    if (success != true) {
        Log.i(TAG, imap.lastErrorText());
        return;
        }

    Log.i(TAG, "Login Success!");

    // Select an IMAP mailbox
    success = imap.SelectMailbox("Inbox");
    if (success != true) {
        Log.i(TAG, imap.lastErrorText());
        return;
        }

    // Continue with whatever you wish to do...
    // (see other examples..)

    // Disconnect from the IMAP server.
    success = imap.Disconnect();

  }

      System.loadLibrary("chilkat");

      // Note: If the incorrect library name is passed to System.loadLibrary,
      // then you will see the following error message at application startup:
