when I click test account settings, establish network connection completes
OK, find outgoing mail server completes OK, the send test e-mail message goes
to inprogress followed by and endless cycle of the "Enter Network Password"
and me clicking OK....

what's going on here? the server is smtp.mail.yahoo.com, and I have checked
that I am typing my yahoo user name and password correctly....

the errors are reported as :
1. outlook could not connect to outgoing SMTP mail server because the server
did not accept your user name or password

2. outlook could not connect to the incoming POP3 mail server because the
server did not accept your user name or password.

Any suggestions as what I can try next will be gratefully received...
