POP3 error in Outlook 2003??

I just moved from OE to Outlook 2003 and set up all my POP3 mail boxes. One
of them is POP3 account at yahoo.com.
It goes through TEST with no problems. Once I click on send&receive it
completes downloading but them shows me this error in the send&receive
dialog box:

________________________________________

Task 'pop.mail.yahoo.ie - Receiving' reported error (0x800CCC90) : 'Your
incoming (POP3) e-mail server has reported an internal error. If you
continue to receive this message, contact your server administrator or
Internet service provider (ISP). The server responded: -ERR problem
retrieving message.'
_________________________________________

Next time when I click on send&receive it downloads all messages again and
doubles them in inbox.

I don't have problems with others pop3 accounts except POP3 at YAHOO.COM.

Any ides how to fix it?

thanks

The first thing I'd try is, since the account works in OE, to import the
account from OE using Outlook's File>Import and Export>Import Internet Mail
Account Settings. Also make sure you do NOT have an antivirus program
integrated with Outlook and and scanning incoming mail. You can also enable
diagnostic logging and see if it shows any anomalies in the communications
between Outlook and the server.
