Since 9 March I have been unable to retrieve my Yahoo mail in SeaMonkey via their POP3 server. I have made no changes, so I assume it is a problem or change on their end. When I attempt to manually retrieve Yahoo mail I get:

"The POP3 mail server (pop.mail.yahoo.com) does not support UIDL or XTND XLST, which are required to implement the ``Leave on Server'', ``Maximum Message Size'' or ``Fetch Headers Only'' options. To download your mail, turn off these options in the Server Settings for your mail server in the Account Settings window."

Of course I AM interested in leaving messages on the server in case I am out of the office and want to check Yahoo mail. Is anyone else seeing this problem? Is there an alternative POP3 server for Yahoo that does work properly?

I seem to recall seeing this problem occasionally in the past and thought that it occurred when Yahoo had some sort of a POP3 server crash and failed to initially recover all functions. But in this case almost a week has passed and the problem still remains.

Are there any other alternatives to retrieve Yahoo mail with SeaMonkey? I have no interest in using web mail in the office.

Dave
