setting up emails
"Selina" wrote in message ... I have not been able to get in my sub account since I made it two years ago now I'm tring to set up these emails and keep getting an error? Hello Selina, sad to say but I gave up on support of US based Yahoo accounts. Another MVP, (US based), answers this type of question here regularly, so if you search this newsgroup in the following way, you will see his replies. In WM, open to this newsgroup, go to the Edit menufindin the from line enter Gary, in the message line enter free yahoo, click Find Now button. HTH? -- Regards Steve. MS-MVP. MAIL.

setting up emails
I see you posted with a Yahoo email address. Is that your
only email address? US-based free Yahoo accounts have webmail access only, no POP access. Windows Mail handles POP mail but not Yahoo webmail. However, your mention of a "sub-account" has me puzzled. Free Yahoo accounts don't have that feature, but the ISP-partnered accounts do. By any chance is your ISP AT&T (SBC) or Verizon? Let me know because that affects my recommendations. For free Yahoo accounts there are two Yahoo solutions: 1. How did you access Yahoo mail before? If you are happy with webmail via your browser, you can continue to use that. 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 If you are OK with using a non-Yahoo email address, you have three other solutions that will work with Windows Mail: * Use the email address assigned to you by your ISP. * Get a free Gmail account. * Get a free Hotmail/Live account. -- Gary VanderMolen, MS-MVP (Mail) "Selina" wrote in message ...

You can't edit the protocol setting. Delete the IMAP account, then
create the new POP account. -- Gary VanderMolen, MS-MVP (Mail) "Annette" wrote in message ... Hello, I need to know how to change my imap to pop3, so that I can send e-mails out. please help |
