Because my ISP supplied POP3 e-mail account has a very small limit (500KBytes) before I start getting charged 'over-mail-limit' fees, I set myself up a freebie Yahoo e-mail account and, I thought, I'd be able to then open my SM Mail & News screen, set up an e-mail account to download the e-mails from my Yahoo account. I think I set it up as 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

O.K., so if POP3 should work .... I've stuffed something up!! I might try setting up a new POP3 account on my SM M&N just to check!!

Or I could go straight for an IMAP account!!

Decisions!! Decisions!! ;-P
