Hi, I just found the answer to my own question (Thanks Gary VanderMolen,
below), the information was in another postings reply "I cannot receive
emails from my email account gmail", you may find it helpful. I, like you,
entered the wrong information when asked or send about my host/server info.
when I tried to send an outging email and this link helped me.
[The complete settings are documented here:
http://help.yahoo.com/l/sg/yahoo/mail/classic/mailoptions/pop/pop-08.html
Also, verify this setting: Tools, Accounts, select that mail account,
Properties, Servers. The box for "Log on using Secure Password
Authentication" should be unchecked.

Hi, I do have Microsoft Vista... Can you tell me where to Change the
incorrect information for the Host/Server (see error message below). I
remember on the first email link I tried to forward it had asked me for my
information (and like Diane I entered the wrong information), but I entered
HTML instead of POP3... I need to know where to go to update this
information. The error message asks to "Please verify that you have entered
the server name correctly", but I don't know were to do this... there is no
link on the message to verify/change the info.
Thanks in advance for your help... Jules :}
