Well, you have four choices:
a) Continue to use your free Yahoo account, but only through a web browser.
or
b) Pay Yahoo $20 per year, which gets you their premium Mail Plus service:

or
c) Switch to a different email address by getting a free Gmail account:
http://gmail.com.
or
d) Who is your ISP? You can use your ISP-provided email address.

Hi Gary,.
Yes, it's a free, U.S. based account. What should I do next?? I kinda like
the email address I created (even I can remember it!!) but I can begin again
if that is the best bet. Most important issue: Need to get Mail setup right
the first time.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME

US-based free Yahoo accounts have webmail access only,
no POP access. Windows Mail handles POP mail but not webmail.
If you have the premium (paid) service that Yahoo calls "Mail Plus", use the
special servers and settings for that service:

Hi Hal,
Sorry for delay as I appreciate your help. Yes, I have McAfee security
suite. I was trying to set up Microsoft Mail when something went wrong.
Keeps popping up a LOGON box asking for User name and Password. When I type
it in it keeps saying invalid. Could I have screwed that up? The exact
message I get is:
The message could not be sent. The authentication setting might not be
correct for your outgoing e-mail [SMTP] server. For help solving this
problem, go to Help, search for "Troubleshoot Windows Mail", and read the
"I'm having problems sending e-mail" section. If you need help determining
the proper server settings, please contact your e-mail service provider.
The rejected e-mail address was 'xxxxx@xxxxxxxxx'. Subject 'Re: Welcome to
Windows Mail', Account: 'pop.mail.yahoo.com', Server: 'smtp.mail.yahoo.com',
Protocol: SMTP, Server Response: '530 authentication required - for help go
to http://help.yahoo.com/help/us/mail/pop/pop-11.html', Port: 25,
Secure(SSL): No, Server Error: 530, Error Number: 0x800CCC78
Oh, and it gets better. I can't post a question on the discussion board.
No dialog box appears. Only way I can communicate is via reply.
Any help is really appreciated. Just want to get this up and running so I
can move on with life. It may take a day or two before I can respond to
anything you can think of as work doesn't allow me computer access.
