Re: cant send or recieve email

US-based free Yahoo accounts have webmail access only.
Windows Mail does not handle webmail.
There are three possible solutions:

1. How did you access Yahoo mail before? If you are happy with
webmail, you can make it your default email service, so that Yahoo
webmail will pop up when you click on a MailTo link on a web page:
http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/mai...ttings-10.html

2. Pay Yahoo to get their premium "Mail Plus" service:
http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/mai...iew/index.html
and use the special settings for that service:
http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/mai...op/pop-14.html

3. Another option is called YPOPs: http://ypopsemail.com
It is free, but requires some technical knowledge to implement.
