I have 3 hotmail accounts and have no trouble accessing them with Outlook
2007. However, I cannot get my yahoo account nor my account with a local
college to work properly. I "manually" set up my accounts (with the correct
pop and smtp), I do a "test connect" and it does "connect", but then fails.

I've tried everything (it seems) from having Outlook configure the accounts
itself. I get successful, but when they try to connect they fail.

Unless you have a paid Yahoo account, you cannot access Yahoo using Outlook
(without the YPops add-in). Have you spoken with the college's computer
center to ask them for the correct configuration?
