Hello, I am a novice to Windows Vista and somehow set my Windows mail to
yahoo.com LOL....now I cannot send certain important mail to potential
employers, etc.
How can I change the server (comes up as 'error' anytime now I try to
respond)
I just bought a new Toshiba and am sooooo confused LOL!

US-based free Yahoo accounts have webmail access only, no
POP access. Windows Mail handles POP mail but not webmail.
There are two Yahoo 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:

If you are OK with using a non-Yahoo email address, you have three other
solutions:
* Use the email address assigned to you by your ISP.
* Get a free Gmail account.
* Get a free Hotmail/Live account, and use it with the Windows Live Mail email program.
