Pancake Posted 19 June, 2009 Share Posted 19 June, 2009 Check the SMTP address you entered for yahoo. sometimes they make you use your ISP one instead. Also, check that you have activiated "POP3" from the Yahoo Mail options online. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thesaint sfc Posted 19 June, 2009 Share Posted 19 June, 2009 go into the email account and advanced settings, then on the second tab (i think) tick my outgoing server (SMTP) requires authenticationion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
