This is the error message

Testing another account
There was a problem logging onto your mail server. Your Password was

Can you help?

Other accounts working fine. I miss my Outlook Express.

The 'at&t Yahoo! HSI servers are having difficulties with SSL at this
time.
The common suggest is to revert to port 110 without SSL for the
moment. If
you are not having trouble sending, leave the Outgoing server
information
alone.

As you can see, lots of 'at&t Yahoo! HSI' users are having troubles;
myself,
as well.

Thank you Norman. At least I have found someone with same problem !

The work around does not work for me. AND now I can not send either.
Hopefully someone is working on it. I have spent hours on this
problem with
sst, chat, phone, etc. etc. It is refreshing to find someone like
yourself who sees what I am trying to say.

I have to give it a rest for a few days before I retackle. In
meantime, if
you find a solution, please, please, please help me.

Alas, my problem is only evident on receiving, and not with the normal
mail
clients. Not that MS Outlook Express would not encounter errors with
'pop.att.yahoo.com', but MSOE is not polling 'pop.att.yahoo.com'. I use
the
"Mercury Distributing POP3 Client" to poll for email at
'pop.att.yahoo.com'.
Using port 995 with SSL causes the client to shut down; but using port
110
without SSL results in failed logins. Fortunately, the client continues
to
poll accounts, and the logged failures are intermittent, so the email
eventually is downloaded. MS Oulook Express polls the "Mercury POP3
Server",
which gets the email from the "Mercury Distributing POP3 Client". Once
the
email is ready on the Mercury POP3 Server", the client can download it
without trouble.
