I am having the hardest time linking yahoo with windows mail. I have entered the pop information into Windows mail but it continually asks me for my username and password over and over and never connects. Can someone please tell me what I am doing wrong. I HATE VISTA!

If you want to use Outlook, Outlook Express, Thunderbird or other third party email clients to view your email you have 2 options.
Subscribe to mail plus:
http://billing.mail.yahoo.com/bm/Upgrades
or download and install YPOPS
then follow the directions for your version of outlook here,

If you have trouble with set up, check the YPOPS installation page for alternate set up instructions.

Click on YPOPS link on the left.
Then Click on Configuring email clients towards the bottom.
Choose the appropriate link for your mail client.
I currently utilize version 2.0.0.4 of Thunderbird
and version 0.8.3 of YPOPS (there is a more recent version of YPOPS that you need if you are Yahoo Beta Mail) and have no problems.
Thumbs up are always appreciated if I have truly helped you!!
