Using WLM with Yahoo and Tiscali

I have read other posts on this issue but believe that I do not need to be a
Yahoo Mail plus user as I have a .co.uk address. And in any case WM works
fine!

I downloaded WLM yesterday and created a Live.com email address. WLM copied
across my Yahoo and Tiscali email account settings from WM. WM still works!!
But WLM does not connect. Nor can I connect to my Live.com address through
the WLM page top right icon. Does anyone know what the settings should be

The error messages are 0x800CCCoE and 0x80048820. I have treid changing
port numbers from 25/110 to 587/465+995 but WLM still does not connect. I
have also reinputted manually the Yahoo/Tiscali address details - the
accounts will not configure automatically

I am pretty sure it is not a Vista computer connection problem as all mail
programs work ok - WM, Outlook, Yahoo Mail and Tiscali

Any advice welcome

Re: Using WLM with Yahoo and Tiscali

Can't you get your yahoo mail just by using http rather than pop or SMTP,
much the same as setting up a connection to a windows live email account?

Re: Using WLM with Yahoo and Tiscali

WLM, doesn't handle Yahoo non pop accounts. It is preconfigured to setup the Yahoo pop/smtp server when a Yahoo address is used to create an account.

Upon setting up a Yahoo Account in WLM one first sees this message


If the account is not pop3 capable, it will fail since it uses the pop/smtp settings.

In Canada(and possibly other locations) pop3 is available without added cost($20/yr in U.S.), thus if the default pop3/smtp servers that WLM uses are different(at least for Canada they aren't)
- http://ca.answers.yahoo.com/answers2...3225758AAM2Cr1
one might be required, if a suffix is necessary for another country and where pop3 is available free of charge, to modify the server setting.

As an example
Yahoo UK Ireland uses a suffix
http://help.yahoo.com/l/uk/yahoo/mail/yahoomail/pop/

http://help.yahoo.com/l/uk/yahoo/mai...ge/pop-08.html

<qp>
1.. Type "pop.mail.yahoo.co.uk" in the Incoming Mail (POP3, IMAP, or HTTP) Server box.
2.. Type "smtp.mail.yahoo.co.uk" in the Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server box.
</qp>

Re: Using WLM with Yahoo and Tiscali

No. yahoo.co.uk is POP not HTTP. In USA you pay for a plus acct thats POP
normal Yahoo mail is web based. I believe WLM does not now support HTTP?

Please note I have no probs receiving all mail in WM; I just cant understnad
why there is no connectivity for accts in WLM given that all settings were
automatically transferred from WM and I have also manually inputted them
again. I cant even sign in to my Live acct from the icon on the home page

Re: Using WLM with Yahoo and Tiscali

Winston

Yahoo in the UK are POP accts not webbased. In the USA I know that you have
to pay.

Prehaps WLM cant distinguish between the two as I had correctly inputted all
the suffixes as you mentioned in your last para

Re: Using WLM with Yahoo and Tiscali

OK. For the Yahoo account, [from help.yahoo.com]:
[On the account properties page Servers tab] ensure that the box is
/checked/ next to "My server requires authentication."
Click the "Advanced" tab and ensure that you have /not/ selected "This
server requires a secure connection (SSL)" under the incoming (POP3) or
outgoing (SMTP) port settings." POP3 uses port 110. Check that the "Email
user name" on the Servers tab is only the bit of your address before the @,
and that "Log on using clear text authentication" is selected.

For the Tiscali account, the Email user name should be the whole of your
address. Check that "Log on using clear text authentication" is selected.

As regards the Live account, can you access your mail at mail.live.com using
the same user name and password as you are trying to use in WLMail? Enable
logging at Options > Advanced > Maintenance, try send/receive for the Live
account and then examine the log in the root of your Store folder. [You can
see where this is by clicking the Store folder button on the same
(Maintenance) page.] You say you can't sign in using the Windows Live
Sign-in button at the top right of the main screen. Double-check the user
name and password - for example, that you're not putting in @live.co.uk
instead of live.com or vice versa. If either is wrong, the log should tell
you.

If the date and time on your computer are not correct, it may cause an error
0x80048820. Since you're using the web interface to post, we can't see what
time your computer says you're posting.

Re: Using WLM with Yahoo and Tiscali

Windows Live Mail supports some , but not all, types of HTTP accounts.
