I run YIM on a Windows box I use to simulate customer experience; it's pretty steady (running the latest Windows version 7.0.2.120 - with voice), except it will bump me off at least once a week, but nothing more. My YIM for Linux is great (logs in much quicker than Windows, ~700ms), but I hardly use it. > Also, mail I am sending out is not appearing to come > back in.

I send mail to Yahoo! using Exim running on my laptop. 'yahoo.co.uk' bound mail is even more problematic. The thing that worries me the most is that even on a Sunday, when I see relatively low activity for my network, I still get these errors, leading to me believe the problem lies on or about the Yahoo! network. Mark.
