a POP3 account and when it didn't download the e-mails from Yahoo, I
figured it was probable because of some limitation that Yahoo put on
the Freebie accounts.
(Note: I cannot actually check this now because, about 18 mths ago, I
accidentally deleted my SM Profile), however ....
It just occurred to me ... is it possible that I was not able to
download from Yahoo because I was trying to download using a POP3
account?? Might it work if I set up my SM (Yahoo) e-mail account as an
IMAP account??
Or is my problem the *freebie* Yahoo e-mail account protocol??
TIA
Pop3 still works with my free yahoo email account. They made a change
where I had to turn off "Leave mail on server" in server settings but
Seamonkey displayed a dialog telling me what to do when that happened.

What a strange decision.
I don't see any significant difference between IMAP and "POP3 with Leave
mail on server" so why are they blocking the second option?
