Default Can't receive mail from yahoo

Yes, I did everything the message said, and yes I can access my emails from
the web. I thought I may have been putting the username and password in for
my yahoo account instead of for my ISP, so I corrected that and still no
joy. Then I came across a paragraph in the yahoo help page that stated in
order to access mail from yahoo to OE you have to subscribe to yahoo mail
plus for $19.99 a year - typical!!!


Only true for yahoo.com and yahoo.ca All other domains, such as
yahoo.co.uk, can be accessed through any email program such as Outlook
Express and Thunderbird. I use a few from the yahoo.es domain on two of
my computers with Outlook Express. You just got to make sure that you
activate it on the Yahoo web mail access or it won't work.

Did you do as the error message says and
Please visit http://mail.yahoo.com' ?

Can you access your mail account via that web site?
