My Yahoo Mail Plus account won't let me send e-mails?
When I try to send, I keep getting a message that won't allow it to either be sent or even saved to Drafts. I can, however, send on Yahoo Mail Classic. What gives?

If you are a Virgin Media customer you might want to try this because it worked for me, if it doesn’t work it might be because you have Yahoo! Beta:
In Internet Explorer
Choose Tools > Internet Options > Connections
Under Dial-Up and Virtual Private Network Settings, ãããif there is an entry in there select it and choose the Settings button
If not then choose the LAN Settings button instead
Now click ããã to add a tick to the box which says Use a proxy server for this connection OR Use a proxy server for your LAN or something similar.
In the Address: box type - webcache.virginmedia.com
In the Port: box type 8080
Click OK and OK again and restart Internet Explorer
You might also need to change back to Yahoo! Classic, when you can get in to do it, that is.
If you have another service provider try telephoning them for help, although my opinion is that the fault lies with Yahoo!
Also my suggestion is open an email account with another provider such as Hotmail or Google or use Outlook then when you can get into Yahoo! Mail activate mail forwarding to your new account and export your contacts to your new account.
