I don't think you should have "plus." in front of the server names. Full details (from the view pop settings page in mail options): Incoming Mail Server (POP3): pop.mail.yahoo.co.uk Use SSL, port: 995 Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP): smtp.mail.yahoo.co.uk Use SSL, port: 465, use authentication If you signed into Yahoo! you can follow this link to view the settings page for yourself: http://popfwd.mail.yahoo.com/pf/PopConfig?.intl=uk&.addr=&.bm=

The first answer is right...you must subscribe to Yahoo! Mail Plus for $20 a year to access your e-mail anywhere else than the Yahoo! Web site.
