I have enabled to use POP through yahoo mail plus. I followed the directions and I haven't been able to send or recieve and email.

| | 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. -- Gary VanderMolen [MS-MVP WLM] "Laurie" <Laurie@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:72E994A7-1CE7-4F1D-BE19-DEB7931693C0@xxxxxx Quote: > The following are the messages that I recieve: > > The connection to the server has failed.

| | Re: Having problems setting up POP with Windows Mail and Yahoo MailPl Are those the correct server names? It seems to be rejecting the sever name itself. Have you tried mail.yahoo.com or just pop.yahoo.com? Give that a try and see if that works. -- Dustin Harper dharper@xxxxxx http://www.vistarip.com Laurie wrote: Quote: > The following are the messages that I recieve: > > The connection to the server has failed.

| | Re: Having problems setting up POP with Windows Mail and Yahoo Mai You messed up on a couple of things. You swapped the port numbers. The incoming (POP3) server should be Port 110. The outgoing (SMTP) server should be Port 587. Also, the error message still shows that SSL is still enabled, which should have been unselected for both. -- Gary VanderMolen [MS-MVP WLM] "Laurie" <Laurie@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:1CDCA235-86DA-4E52-9A0C-0BB308263C9E@xxxxxx Quote: > Gary- > > I unselected the SSL options on both the POP3 and the SMTP and changed the > ports to 110 and 587 respectively and these are the errors now given: > > The connection to the server has failed.
