Re: Having problems setting up POP with Windows Mail and Yahoo Mail Pl

Your settings look correct to me, so it is a mystery why nothing is working.
There are a few circumstances where the SSL option is not compatible,
so try this: on the Advanced tab of the account properties, unselect SSL,
then change the receiving port to 110, and the sending port to 587.
