Is it a free or a paid account you have with Yahoo??

Set the ports back (to recommended - not defaults) and try setting SSL on
(check the two boxes on the Advanced tab) . . . if it still doesn't work
post errors here as you've been doing. It may also be that you will need to
disable email scanning in your anti-virus software. One thing at a time and
wait for responses here . . . . . this is a very active, responsive group.

Donna,
You are using Plus Yahoo settings. That is a yahoo program one has to pay
for. YES ?
Assuming that you did pay for it, then you have to .......
1. ) enable SSL to YES, not NO.
2. ) port # is 995 as you did earlier, NOT 110.
Here is the link, check and compare with your own settings.
