Same Error as on May 22

[dframz]

An unknown error has occurred. Account: '(e-mail address removed)', Server:
'pop.att.yahoo.com', Protocol: POP3, Port: 995, Secure(SSL): Yes, Error
Number: 0x80004005
I had the same trouble back on May 22 that I'm having now. I run my
business emails thru Windows Mail, none of my setting have been changed all
the suggestions I got on May 22 did not work after 2 days it just started
working again.
So I guess I will just wait till it starts working again. I am assuming its
the att.yahoo thats causing the trouble. And of course can't get a responce
from ATT.

Last month I got the same error on my ATT/Yahoo mail account.
What worked for me:
Go to http://mail.yahoo.com and log in with your AT&T credentials.
Then clean out all the folders in your webmail. If you want to save
any messages, create a new folder and move those messages to the
new folder. Empty the spam and thrash folders also. Close webmail, then
try Windows Mail again.
