Yahoo Mail Problem

[Guest]

When I try to set up windows Mail to access my new Yahoo mail account I get
this message

Account: 'pop.mail.yahoo.co.uk', Server: 'pop.mail.yahoo.co.uk', Protocol:
POP3, Server Response: '-ERR invalid user/password', Port: 110, Secure(SSL):
No, Server Error: 0x800CCC90, Error Number: 0x800CCC92

I KNOW the username/password I have set up is correct so I don't understand
why it does not work

Sounds like the account has become corrupted, possibly due to
antivirus scanning:

Delete ('remove') the account. Close WinMail, open it again,
then recreate the account.

It is possible that your antivirus program is continuing to interfere
with Windows Mail, even after the mail scanning feature of the
antivirus program has been turned off. This is especially true if'
you are using either McAfee or Norton antivirus. As a test, uninstall
your antivirus program temporarily, delete and recreate the email
account, and try again.
