Re: Problems with Yahoo Mail

I started using YPops as recommended on this list a while ago and have
no problems with it at all.  It allows you to use your Yahoo account as
a POP account.   http://www.ypopsemail.com/



I probably mismember, but doesn't that "fly under" Yahoo's ToS for the free
accounts?  Maybe it doesn't, but Yahoo certainly does not support it, given
that they sell account upgrades that offer POP access.  I guess if it had
bothered them enough, they would have flipped some switch to disable
services like ypops.  Maybe not.

Gmail makes no bones about setting up POP access.  They even show you how to
do it for various email clients.  (Although they were a few versions behind
the Tbird I had on my system.)
