Setting up Email (Yahoo) - Treo Forums

ecafkrod · 06-07-2006, 08:27 PM

I've tried numerous times but doesn't seem to be working for me. I use Yahoo Business Email for work which allows POP3 connections. I've followed all the necessary steps but seems to give me the following error:

"Messages cannot be downloaded to your mobile device. Make sure you are connected and that your e-mail account settings are correct. Then, try to download messages again."

I know for a fact I put in all the right information, but for some reason it won't work? Any suggestions??? Anybody who has setup a yahoo email POP3 on their 700W? Please provide step by step! HELP!?!?

i've used pop3 to grab my yahoo small biz email from my treo.

are you sure you're using:

pop.bizmail.yahoo.com

and

smtp.bizmail.yahoo.com

for your incoming and outgoing servers? a lot of people forget the .bizmail part.

I keep trying and trying as well and I can't get it to work. I'm getting the same error as below. Can anyone provide any tips?? I've been at this for over an hour with no luck. At one point I was receiving emails - but couldn't send. And now after continuing to play with settings, I can't send OR receive. Help!
