Email Problem

[davechamb]

I have set up outlook to connect to the Yahoo Pop server.
I can successfully send emails using Outlook but receive
the following error message when soing so:

Task 'pop.mail.yahoo.com - Sending' reported error
(0x800CCC78) : 'Unable to send the message. Please verify
the e-mail address in your account properties. The server
responded: 530 authentication required - for help go to
http://help.yahoo.comhelp/us/mail/pop/pop--.html'

I seem to be unable to receive emails into my Outlook
inbox.

I have contacted Yahoo and followed all the instructions
they gave me. They told me it was a fault with my email
client.

You need to configure authentication per the instructions on Yahoo!s site -
check under Mail->Help.

the (insert latest virus name here) virus, all mail sent to my personal
account will be deleted without reading.

I am getting the same error on 3 separate accounts, 2 on
yahoo, and another on another server - the message there
is slightly different. I think either my outlook is
corrupted or there is virus damage (I am protected by
Norton)

If you find an answer - let me know.
