I'm trying to use my yahoo account thur outlook, so when I set it up
I did it
for an http server (right?) but when I try to send a message.. I'll
type it
up, click send and then it tells me:
An unknown error has occurred. Account:
'http://login.yahoo.com/config/login_verify2?&.src=ym', Server:
'http://login.yahoo.com/config/login_verify2?&.src=ym', Protocol:
HTTPMail,
Port: 0, Secure(SSL): No, Error Number: 0x800CCCF4

Yahoo does not provide any HTTP accounts. They only supply POP3 but
*only* if you pay them. Freebie Yahoo Mail accounts don't get POP3
access.

Not 100% true - Yahoo uk and (I think) Yahoo france offer free pop
access...


Reread the OP's post (I snipped off the last part in my reply so only
the error was included). Notice "yahoo.COM" was mentioned, not some
other domain for Yahoo.
