Yahoo.co.uk mail
 
I collect my mail from Yahoo by pop, normally I don't have any problems, infact I cant remember the last time I had any trouble getting my mail, but today and last night it just keeps timing out.

Anyone else out there that gets their yahoo.co.uk mail via pop, are you having problems too, or is it just me? :sob:

For what it's worth I use Outlook XP and the pop.mail.yahoo.com address.

The web page works fine for me too... fine that is if you like loads of mail for enlargements, creams and messages from mysterious women. :rolleyes:

Working fine here, have you checked your settings? Could your local proxy be causing issues at all?

Hello Dell,
I used to get the same problem until I used a proxy cache, maybe you could try that, I don't know why it made any difference but it worked :dozey:

Thanks for the replies, I can get it from the web-mail screens but thats a bit of a pain, sending seems to be fine, and I've re-added the e-mail account details to Outlook a couple of times in case it's me being dumb but it still doesn't like it :(

I'm with Bulldog and they don't use proxies (so I'm told) so it cant be that, I'm beginning to get annoyed now, wonder if its their pop servers that are on the blink??:confused:

Have you downloaded a new version of ZoneAlarm as a bug was discovered in early versions

yes, i uninstalled and then rinstalled zone alarm to take advantage of the 15 days pro trial, still not getting emails, but not fussed really, just a pain having to log onto net mail.

but hey rather a few mote clicks that run the risk of a virus getting me as soon as zone alarm off
