PBeM and Yahoo mail

[kalendb]

Has anyone had any issues using Yahoo mail for PBeM?

I keep getting SMTP error messages.

I didn't think you could use the smtp connection sending through Yahoo?

You shall have most luck if you use the smtp server of your ISP.

For instance, I am on NTL broadband. I set email address to my yahoo account and smtp to smtp.ntlworld.com. As an NTL subscriber, I am not required to provide a username or password. Your own ISP may have different rules, but I believe it is quite rare for them to require a username and password from their own customers.

Hope that helps

Yahoo freemail doesn't support SMTP sending, from what I remember. You're probably better off just going in through the webmail and attaching it manually.
