The connection to the server has failed. Account: 'mail.optonline.net', Server: 'mail.optonline.net', Protocol: POP3, Port: 995, Secure(SSL): Yes, Socket Error: 10060, Error Number: 0x800CCC0E

Please begin a new thread about YOUR problems instead of hijacking someone
else's thread. Thanks.

And you want us to guess what are those error messages?

I don't use MS Outlook, however some have had problems with Outlook 2002, or
Outlook 2003 and the AT&T-Yahoo! servers. Some who have cleared the problem
by applying the latest Service Packs, or deleting personal security
certificates, or uninstalling Windows Live Onecare.

From my perspective, I have had no problems accessing
'pop.att.yahoo.com:995' w/SSL using any of a number of local clients, from
MS Outlook Express 6 to the Mercury/32 'Distributing POP3 Client'.

However, 'smtp.att.yahoo.com:465' w/SSL is another matter. You can only use
the same email address as sender as you used to log in. If you use any other
email address as sender than the log in email address, and you don't jump
through some Yahoo! imposed hoops, you will see a failure.

Currently, none of the SMTP message submission clients I've used with
'smtp.att.yahoo.com:465' w/SSL have failed, except the Mercury/32 'SMTP
Relay Client C', and I can't fix that within the scope of limitations
imposed by Yahoo!.

I have had a similar problem. I have spend 1.5 hours on the phone with geek
squad support, 1.5 hours with att and have done everything listed on the
website. I can go in and reset all the info in settings and be able to
send/receive once but not again. Geek Squad says it is an att issue. Att says
it is a virus protection issue. Whoever made the decision at att to switch to
att.yahoo created a very unfriendly user experience even just going through
webmail.

Most people aren't having trouble with the Yahoo! Mail service. Some people
with some versions of MS Outlook (2002 and 2003, I believe), and some people
using Mozilla Thunderbird have encountered issues with personal security
certificates, and some using Windows Live OneCare have encountered problems.
