I setup the accout in windows mail. Also put the pop name for incoming and
out going. I'm actually using yahoo mail but i want it in windows mail...
after all that, it tells me to verify the user name an password...I do it and
it wont work.... What can I do? Am I doing something wrong?
 
Us or non-US account? If US account are you using the premium account you
have to pay for?

If not paying for the account and in the US, you can't use Yahoo mail in
Windows Mail. They don't provide free POP account to US customers, only
outside of the US gets it for free.

If you of the US, check Yahoo's web site for the proper server names and
ensure you have the right username and password.
 
Am having the same problem here too... Wrote correct yahoo Pop and SMTP
server, but Windows security repeatedly comes up asking for my yahoo user
name and password... which than produces the messages that these are invalid?
What is going on?
 
In order for POP and SMTP to work, you need to sign up to Yahoo! Delivers
Make sure that you set the correct port number for SMTP, port 587
 
Why is it that no one reads a reply and just jumps in with a why why why?

I don't know why, I'm trying to help to find out why but no one seems to
want to answer some simple questions. I can't see what you have done from
here.
