Outlook Express - Cannot Send POP3 Emails (& Cannot Receive Yahoo

[Roxieham]

I have setup to receive my gmail, live, and yahoo emails in Outlook Express
2007. I have successfully received the gmail and live emails, but I have not
received any yahoo emails.

Furthermore, I am not able to send any emails from any of the email accounts
and they messages are all sitting in the outbox (unsent). With the Yahoo
account, I receive the following error message:

There was a problem logging onto your mail server. Your Password was
rejected. Account: 'plus.pop.mail.yahoo.com', Server:
'plus.pop.mail.yahoo.com', Protocol: POP3, Server Response: '-ERR [SYS/PERM]
pop not allowed for user.', Port: 995, Secure(SSL): Yes, Server Error:
0x800CCC90, Error Number: 0x800CCC92

What could be the problem? Please let me know if there is something else to
try or double check to ensure that I have setup the accounts properly.

Please clarify: you either have Outlook Express, or Outlook 2007 - which?

Free Yahoo accounts cannot be accessed via POP. If this is a free account,
that's the explanation. However, if you're using the plus server, then
perhaps you have a Yahoo Plus account. If so, contact Yahoo and have them
help you solve the problem, since you pay them for the Plus account.

First of all, I would ask in an Outlook Express newsgroup, not Outlook.

Thanks Brian, you have cleared up the matter for me as I do not have a
Yahoo Plus account (it's a free account). When I read the
instructions for setting up POP for Yahoo, it provided instructions
for the Plus account. Thus, the reason that I have encountered the
error. I will setup POP again for a free account.

Now, as for the gmail and live accounts, I am still not able to send
emails from Outlook Express as the emails are sitting in the Outbox.
What could be the problem? Any suggestions will be greatly
appreciated.

Outlook Express 2007 (I believe that I know what the problem is now).

Me too. There is no such product as Outlook Express 2007.

I will setup POP again for a free account.

Yahoo does not allow POP access for free accounts. You can, however, try
this:

How did you configure the gmail and Live accounts. Post details.
