Foxmail and Yahoo pops conflict?

[Anna]

hi all,

I had the problem of downloading my hotmail emails with Foxmail but it was a
failure. But I recently realised that it has some conflicts with yahoo pops.
So if i stop yahoo pops it downloads my hotmail emails too. I believe both
Foxmail and Yahoo pops used localhost thing as server name and it makes the
confusion.

Any solution for that yet?

Use different port numbers.

Perhaps posting more detail on your configuration of the two
programs would enable me to help you.

HI THANKS,
I don't know what else to say: they both uses port 110 so i changed the
foxmail one to 255. I don't know any other settings??

I would suggest you leave Foxmail at 110, since it is your
primary mail client, and let YahooPops sit on a different local
port. Then, for your Yahoo account, point Foxmail to localhost:
at that port. This way most of the weirdness is relegated to YP.

Note: To do this you must set YP to the new port, and restart.
Then in your client you must spec that new port under individual
account properties. Both settings must work in tandem, so the
apps can talk to each other.
