Hi everyone! I have a little question and unsolved problem here...
About the Yahoo Mail POP3 settings for the Sony Ericsson P1...
1. Can Yahoo Mail POP3 be set up on P1 for free when using FREE Yahoo account (not the yahoo mail plus)?
2. If so can someone post the right settings here... I have tried searching forums and reading sooo many posts but none of them explains it exactly what parameters I should enter to configure my P1 for Yahoo mail...
Any info will be very appreciated!
Thanks!

I don't think that you can do it for free with a Yahoo account, you can only do it with Gmail as far as I know... |

Did you enabled POP access in Yahoo mail.
AFAIK you cant do it on the new Yahoo Mail Beta, you have to use the old Yahoo Mail Plus (or whatever it called, HTML based one). |

That's cuz POP3 si not free for yahoo.com. That's why it doesn't work.Just for yahoo.co.uk. I use it.
