OK. I'm guessing you access your yahoo mail via your browser (internet explorer, firefox, etc.) so that is simply a Yahoo server issue with their mail servers, not really anything to do with Yahoo Messenger.
Why don't you get Gmail, from Google? http://www.gmail.com It's about a million times better than Yahoo mail. It's faster, better spam filtering, labeling (instead of creating folders), POP3 accessible so you can download your mail to Outlook, Outlook Express or other mail client, virtually unlimited storage, etc., etc., etc. I have a Yahoo mail address and I get 10 pieces of spam for every legitimate message in my inbox. With Gmail, I rarely get spam in my inbox and I get around 200 legitimate emails a day. Occasionally, Gmail will send a piece of legitimate mail to my spam folder, as does most spam filtering, so folks should still check their spam folders on a daily basis to make sure good mail isn't getting trashed by the ISP spam filters. I still come across people everyday who have their email set up to trash all spam every day so they never even realize good mail is getting trashed. I have my spam folders set up to keep the mail for 30 days so if I go out of town or something, I can still skim through the spam folder to make sure good mail didn't get lost. Some people don't even have their spam folders activated so the ISP just trashes anything they think is spam and the people never know.

(12:30 p.m. CST) When are you getting the error? That sounds like a browser error, not something that comes on with Yahoo Messenger. I have never had a server error message with YM. It either connects or the yellow smiley bounces up and down while it's trying to connect and then turns gray if it can't. Are you getting that error message when you are trying to access YM from your web browser or when you are trying to open a chat room from YM? That's the only times that I think a browser type error message would come up. Just use your Start Menu> All Programs> Yahoo Messenger (or you can pin YM to your quick launch in your taskbar or frequently used programs on your Start Menu). Speaking of the yellow smiley, I was reading that the original typed smiley :-) had it's 25th Birthday last week when I was looking at Yahoo Messenger blog. Happy Birthday Mr. Smiley! http://blog.messenger.yahoo.com/blog/2007/09/27/smiley-has-a-party/ <http://blog.messenger.yahoo.com/blog/2007/09/27/smiley-has-a-party/> Lenny Vasbinder 504-621-1870 FREE and automatic online remote backup of your documents, photos and files... https://mozy.com/?ref=SY4ZSI <https://mozy.com/?ref=SY4ZSI> Check out how simple and secure it can be to use the Mozy remote backup system.
