This keeps popping up when I open Windows Mail....

[Gary VanderMolen]

Your second account is a hybrid one, in that the SMTP server belongs
to a different company than the POP server. That type of arrangement
requires special treatment. I take it that AT&T (former SBC division)
is your ISP. Do this:

1. In Windows Mail go to Tools, Accounts, select the 5to9.net account,
click Properties, Servers. Verify that the name of the outgoing (SMTP)
server is smtp.att.yahoo.com, and the POP3 server is mail.5to9.net .
Also, make sure that the "My server requires authentication" option is
checked. Click the adjacent "Settings" button. Select "Log on using"
then enter your sbcglobal.net username and password. Click OK.

2. Go to the Advanced tab and verify that for the outgoing (SMTP)
server the SSL option is enabled, and the port is 465. For the incoming
(POP3) server verify that the SSL option is NOT checked, and the port
is 110. Click OK. Try sending and receiving.

According to
http://help.yahoo.com/l/nz/yahooxtra/mail/classic/pop/pop-08.html
you should be using the server name pop.mail.yahoo.com.au
for both the incoming and outgoing servers.
Note that the country code is .au rather than .nz.
That is why you are getting the error about CN name not matching.

You're very welcome. Thanks for reporting back.
When mail providers make changes, they often allow a grace
period where both the old and new settings work for a while,
but eventually support for the old settings is dropped.

What can I do I click Yes and all is well with e mail can I get rid of it.

 

[Gary VanderMolen \(MVP\)]

In order to help you, we need the following information:

name of the incoming (POP3) server, its port number, SSL enabled or not?
name of the outgoing (SMTP) server, its port number, SSL enabled or not?

 

[Chas]

Okay here's how I solved the problem with this pain of a thing. First go to
Tools, then Accounts. Double click on your default mail account, (It should
be at the top). A window will open with tabs reading:
General-Servers-Connection-Security-Advanced. Open the Servers Tab. Check
your incoming and outgoing mail addresses are correct. Check your email user
name is correct as is your password. Tick remember password. Now, if "Log on
using Secure Password Authentication" is ticked, untick it.. Do the same for
My server requires authentication, (click apply). Now go to the Advanced
Tab.Make sure you untick "This server requires a secure connection" on both
the incoming and outgoing mail boxes, (click apply and OK). Close Accounts
and click on Send/Receive in your email window. Hopefully, your email should
work again.

Cheers

Orez.
