<pre wrap="">Hi Robert,
I did specify <a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:user@sbcglobal.net">user@sbcglobal.net</a>. At least I know somebody has got it work.
I called tech support, but if your not using Outlook they will not help you. Looks
like I'll have to try this on a windows system.
Thanks,
Dan

<pre wrap="">Greetings,
I setup a new installation for a friend today using DSL sbcglobal.yahoo.com
I have no trouble sending email through the SMTP server at sbcglobal.yahoo.com
however I can not receive email. It keeps saying the username/password is
invalid which seems strange because I send email. Is there anybody that has
configured DSL pop.sbcglobal.yahoo.com and got it to work? BTW: There are
two email accounts which give different errors, the main account says "Server
is busy try again later", the other account says username/password is invalid.
Regards,
Dan

<pre wrap="">user name is the full email address for both the pop and smtp servers:
<a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:user@sbcglobal.net">user@sbcglobal.net</a>. I've used kmail, evolution and (currently)
Thunderbird with no problem...

how do you have the servers configured? Here's mine (Thunderbird):<br>
pop.sbcglobal.yahoo.com port 110 use secure connection: 'no' checked<br>
smtp.sbcglobal.yahoo.com port 25 use secure connection: 'no' checked<br>
<br>
I just set up kmail with the above settings (no choice on ports
though), and after a little while at the "checking security
capabilities of sbcglobal.net" window, I was able to just start
downloading my mail.<br>
<br>
I tried to send a test message to myself, and had to modify the account
settings and add my user name and password, then all went well.<br>
