I am trying to set up windows mail to send and receive using mail.yahoo.com
after many attempts unable get it to work.

error msg OX8000 CCOX

Any help appreciated.
 
US-based free Yahoo accounts have webmail access only, no POP
access. Windows Mail does not handle webmail.
There are three possible solutions:

1. How did you access Yahoo mail before? If you are happy with
webmail via your browser, you can continue to use that.

2. Pay Yahoo to get their premium "Mail Plus" service:
http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/mail/original/mailplus/overview/index.html
and use the special settings for that service:

3. Another option is called YPOPs. It is free, but requires some technical
knowledge to implement:
