'smtp.sbcglobal.yahoo.com' uses SMTP Authentication. In OE this is
specified in Tools, Accounts, Mail, Properties, Servers, Outgoing Mail
Server, My Server Requires Authentication. (If the Incoming Mail Server
Account Name and Password above this are not for your ISP mail account,
click the Settings button and fill your ISP settings there.)

As far as I know, mail.sbcglobal.net doesn't use SMTP Authentication.

If you are using a PC connected via another ISP, they may be restricting
access to your home ISP's servers.

You mention not being able to receive via Outlook Express. But provide
no details, so I can't provide any further suggestions with that.

Your server has unexpectedly terminated the connection. Possible

HELP I am at a loss

Are you an AT&T Yahoo! HSI customer? If so, you shouldn't be trying
to use a
legacy SBC POP3 server. In any case. 'mail.sbcglobal.net' is not
answering
on port 110.

Here is a list of the servers for AT&T Yahoo! HSI customers.

You probably should be using 'smtp.sbcglobal.yahoo.com'.

But your NNTP posting IP address is not an AT&T Yahoo! HSI IP
address?

| X-WBNR-Posting-Host: 67.184.xxx.xxx

Sam Spade tells me:

| 11/22/06 13:52:04 dns 67.184.xxx.xxx
| nslookup 67.184.xxx.xxx
| Canonical name: c-67-184-xxx-xxx.hsd1.il.comcast.net
| Addresses:
| 67.184.xxx.xxx

So which is your ISP? Do you even have an " email
address?
