    Not recieving emails...

    I have established an email account with Windows email and linked my yahoo
    email account. I can send messages yet I do not recieve the test messages to
    my Windows Mail account they do go to my Yahoo account but not to my Windows
    Mail inbox. I do not know what to do. Looked for answers on Windows website
    but did not find what I was looking for can someone please help me. Also when
    I click on the Send/Recieve tab it has me log in to my email account and then
    does not take login. Yet the account works. I do not understand.



    Thanks Jim

    It is a Yahoo Plus account - right? You must have a Yahoo PLUS for POP3
    access. If you have that, you might try deleting the account you set up and
    recreating it from scratch. Sometimes the setup corrupts itself.

    You have a Yahoo email account like Jim Sleeter?
    Is it a free one or a paid one?
