Am I missing something here? I'm assuming that this ypopse thing allows you to
retrieve email from a Yahoo account using a standard email client? If so, then I
can do this now via the account that I'm using for this post, or one or two
others that I'm using.

But then it is via the yahoo.com.au domain. Would the plain yahoo.com domain be

What I'd like to see is a way to use IMAP with Yahoo. Gmail's implementation
