I am having the same problem with my username and password. I tried deleting
the acct, but it is still not working??? I am putting in my yahoo user name
and password...is this what it is asking for?

Thanks!

Yahoo email addresses are not necessarily supported by Windows Mail.

For instance, the free Yahoo service in the USA will NOT work with
Windows Mail.

Please give more details and any error messages you encounter.

other ideas?

Is your Yahoo account a free one based in the US? If so, it has no
POP/SMTP access, only web mail access. Windows Mail doesn't
do web mail.
