Hi,

I just bought a new computer with Wiundow Vista.

I wouls like to use the Window Mail.
When I try to connect I got the following repsonse:
Échec de la connexion au serveur. Compte : '995', Serveur : '995',
Protocole : POP3, Port : 110, Sécurisé (SSL) : Non, Erreur de socket :
10061, Numéro d'erreur : 0x800CCC0E

Is someone can help me to foind out the right procedure to set up my Window
mail with my Yahoo email address

Many Thanks

Nathalie

I see you posted with a Yahoo email address. Is that your only email
address? US-based (and probably also Canadian) free Yahoo accounts
have webmail access only, no POP access. Windows Mail handles POP
mail but not Yahoo webmail.
Yahoo's solution is to pay them for premium "Mail Plus" service:

and use the special settings for that service:

If you are OK with using a non-Yahoo email address, you have these other
solutions that will work with Windows Mail:
* Use the email address assigned to you by your ISP.
* Use a free Gmail, AOL, or Hotmail/Live account.
If you need more help with any of these solutions, just ask.
