    asking for username and password but never able to login. After I press
    CANCEL, the following message appear.

    Account: 'plus.pop.mail.yahoo.com', Server: 'plus.pop.mail.yahoo.com',
    Protocol: POP3, Server Response: '-ERR [AUTH] invalid user/password', Port:
    995, Secure(SSL): Yes, Server Error: 0x800CCC90, Error Number: 0x800CCC92

    Anyone can help????

    thanks

    Do you have a free Yahoo account or a paid one?
    Only Yahoo's premium "Mail Plus" service gets POP access:

    If you do have that service, make sure your settings agree with:
