Mail/Yahoo/10.6.3

Hi Everyone
I have recently upgraded to Snow Leopard 10.6.3 and find I cannot retrieve my yahoo mail into Apple Mail anymore. However I have no problems with me.com or BT Internet. I have reinstalled the yahoo account into Mail in case of a corruption but to no avail!
Any advice would be gratefully received.
Cheers.

While I don't have one, I believe the earliest Yahoo free accounts are grandfathered in the US, and the change to the free account may not have impacted those outside the US.
Since Mail 4.x is rather automatic in its setup process, try the following -- add the account, but after completing the first page of setup DO NOT click on Create, but rather hold down the Option Key until the Create button changes to a Continue Button. Click that and try a more manual completion of the setup.
This is just guesswork, but other setups need this step to avoid some assumptions Mail will otherwise make.

Cannot send email through yahoo on iPad 4, apple.smtp.mail.yahoo not available as of December 1, 2012

I am unable to send emails through yahoo on my ipad 4 wifi, just starting over the weekend. My 3 other non-yahoo email accounts are working fine on my ipad. When I try to send an email from the yahoo account, I receive the message that the connection to the outgoing mail server "apple.smtp.mail.yahoo" failed. I can send email through yahoo just fine on the web and on my computer through Thunderbird.

Yahoo's been having persistently random issues for months. You can try just waiting it out, or delete and readd your yahoo account. When my accounts were affected I just used webmail to access my yahoo accounts until it cleared up.
Chances are it's all on their end and really all you can do is wait it out.

Mail & Yahoo: how can I get "Sent" folder to synch, like the "Inbox"?

Happy to be back in Mac, after 15yrs of corporate MS boredom. And TIA for your help with my little 'set-up' problem.
I'd like that my "Sent" mailbox (in Mail.app) mimic the functionality of my "Inbox" mailbox, as relates to my Yahoo!Plus email account. What do I mean? My Inbox associated with my Yahoo account, i.e. in the Mail sidebar under the higher-level Inbox mailbox, contains every email that was in my Inbox on the Yahoo server (and still is, since I chose not to "Remove a copy from the server after retrieving a message, in Mail>Prefs>Accts>Advanced pane).
But the "Sent" mailbox associated with my Yahoo account only contains the messages I send from the Mail application (clearly only when I choose to use the Yahoo account). Also, none of these messages appear in the Sent folder on the Yahoo server, i.e. when I go to the Yahoo site via a web browser, which I'll do when not carrying the Mac with me.
Otherwise, setting up Mail to work with Yahoo was a breeze. N.B. I pay the $20/yr fee for the Mail Plus account/service, so didn't get stuck with the "pay to play" issue that many others have when trying to set up their free Yahoo acct w/Mail.
I recall having this "Sent" folder functionality when I was using Outlook a couple of years ago, hence the answer to 'why would this guy have been paying $20 a year...?'. And I don't/won't go there on my Mac!
Thanks, again, for any help.

Necessity being the Mother of invention, I built a crude work-around and fixed half of the problem. I'd still be interested to hear if any of you have 'solved' the other half.
First half fix: On the mail.yahoo.com site, go to the Sent folders and select all of the messages there. Then, in the header, click on the "Move..." button and then select the "Inbox" as the destination. (N.B. This can not be undone; You can move messages from the Inbox to other folders, but not to your Sent folder. Go figure.) The next time you synch (or "Get Mail") from the Mac's Mail app, these "sent" messages will appear in your Inbox. Sort the Inbox by sender and move the messages sent by you to your "Sent" mailbox folder.
Now you've got a complete history of emails, both sent and received, on your Mac.
Second problem not fixed: Messages sent from the Mail app do not appear in the "Sent" folder on mail.yahoo website. So while your Inbox is synchronized between your Mac and your yahoo! account, your Sent items are not.
I was hoping that synching my Mac Mail with .Mac would allow me to see my sent messages remotely, from any internet browser. But at first blush, that dog don't hunt.
Any advice - short of a wholesale move to my @mac.com email - would be appreciated greatly. Even if the advice is "give up the ghost; can't be done; give up the yahoo email"!
Cheers.

For the 1st time I am trying to send an iPhoto by email but get an error message "combinations of username and password not recognised" I use the same details to log on to my Sky Mail (yahoo mail ) account . Any ideas?

For the 1st time I am trying to send an iphoto by e-mail but get the error message " combination of username and password not recognised by the server" I use Sky Mail ( yahoo mail) and input the same username and password that I access Sky Mail - have retried many times. Predictably the Sky help desk have no idea. Can anyone help please?

I regret that you're having trouble setting up your email, corbad! You're on the right track with your incoming email address. You might also try incoming.verizon.net or incoming.yahoo.verizon.net as possible alternatives, and 995 as the port number. Please let me know how that goes!

Mail & Yahoo Mail Sending problems

Hello all, I have finally admitted defeat. I have been using Apple Mail to pick up my Yahoo Mail for a long time without any issues. Suddenly it has decided to not send emails...and I have no idea why.
I got the settings off of Yahoo's site. The pop.mail.yahoo.co.uk settings work but it seems that the smtp settings are the ones creating the issues. Currently they are smtp.mail.yahoo.co.uk / server port 465 / SSL checked and authenicating with a password. I have used the connection doctor and it says that both incoming and outgoing connections are good.
Anyway, after trawling through the forums on Yahoo and here I have tried deleting all prefs, re-inputting all of the above information. No joy. I have tried changing the port to 587. No joy. I have tried turning off SSL and switching to port 110. No juice.
I have tried the same settings in Entourage but that doesn't work either. So, I am now throwing myself at these boards to see if someone - anyone - has a solution that doesn't require a stamp and an envelope.
Man, I can build and rig straight down the pipe but I can't send an email! Hummph.

Hi
I too am having problems sending email from my Yahoo accounts. I contacted Yahoo support and they sent me this to try.
1. Launch the "Terminal" application located in the "Applications:
Utilities" folder.
2. At the text prompt, type "telnet pop.mail.yahoo.co.uk 110" and press
the "Enter/Return" key. If you're successful, you should now see "+OK
hello from popgate." If you don't see this, close the window and start
over or check your Internet or network connection to make sure you're
logged on.
3. From this screen, type "user xxx" (where xxx is your Yahoo! ID) and
press "Enter/Return." You should be prompted with "+OK password
required."
4. Type "pass yyy" (where yyy is your case-sensitive password) and press
"Enter/Return." If this is successful, you should receive a prompt with
"+OK maildrop ready," followed by mailbox details. If this was not
successful, you'll receive "-ERR Error logging in. Please visit
http://ymailuk.com/."
5. Type "quit" and press "Enter" to sign off the POP server.
6. Type "exit" and press "Enter" to return to Windows.
If you weren't able to get the POP authentication during the first try,
please wait a few minutes and try again. After several tries, you should
be able to tell if your ID and password will allow you to achieve POP
authentication.
Next, check if you are able to communicate with the Yahoo! Mail Plus
SMTP server. Here's how:
1. Launch the "Terminal" application located in the "OS X Applications:
Utilities" folder.
2. At the text prompt, type "telnet smtp.mail.yahoo.co.uk 25" and press
the "Enter/Return" key. If the port is not blocked, you should receive a
response similar to "220 smtpxxx.mail.yahoo.co.uk ESMTP" (where "xxx" is
the server number you connected to). If you don't receive this specific
response or if you get a different response, your ISP, networking
equipment, or security software may be blocking or scanning outgoing
mail servers.
NOTE: Please also try port 587 in place of 25. It's important that you
try the alternate port, as some ISPs will block port 25 by default.
Though it does mention Mail Plus in the instructions and I don't have MailPlus I was able to connect using port 587 to the SMTP Server.

Mail + Yahoo = NO GO anymore?

Hi there,
I have an odd problem. Since a couple of days Mail doesn`t sync with Yahoo anymore. It looks like, that Mail can't set this account online anymore. My iPhone doesn't have any problems at all. Funny thing though: I sync Mail (etc) via my MobileMe account!
Can somebody help, please!
Cheers

I use Yahoo mail. Why do I sometimes get a message saying "Safari can't identify the website ca.mg5.mail.yahoo.ca ? When I click continue there is no problem.

How do I stop getting messages saying "Safari can't identify the website ca.mg5.mail.yahoo.com. The cerrtificate for this website is invalid " In fact there does not appear to be a problem because when I click "continue" everything proceeds as usual. But I would like to stop getting this message.

Back up all data.
Unlock the Network preference pane, if necessary, by clicking the lock icon in the lower left corner and entering your password. Cllck Advanced, open the DNS tab, and change the server addresses to the following:
8.8.8.8
8.8.4.4
That's Google DNS. Click OK, then Apply.
In Safari, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
and confirm. If you’re using another browser, empty the cache. Test. Any difference?
Notes:
1. If you lose Internet access after making the above change to your network settings, delete the Google servers in the Network preference pane, then select the TCP/IP tab and click Renew DHCP Lease. That should restore the original DNS settings; otherwise restore them yourself. Remember that you must clickApply in order for any changes to take effect.
2. I don't use Google DNS myself, though I have tested it, and I'm not recommending it or any other DNS provider; the server addresses are offered merely for testing purposes. There may be privacy and technical issues involved in using that service, which you should investigate personally before you decide whether to keep the settings. Other public DNS services exist.

Nothing to solve that is normal behavior. You can also sync it with icloud (settings icloud and turn notes on, settings mail contacts calendars yahoo mail account turn notes off.) Other email providers support notes sync as well, but right now your default is yahoo.

Hi delegué du personnel,
That sounds like it may be more of an issue with Yahoo, than with the PDF files. But please tell us what you mean by "cannot upload." Do you get an error message? If so, what is it?

[SOLVED] msmtp: Gmail sends empty mails, Yahoo ignores "from"

I have recently embarked on the atrocious adventure of migrating from Thunderbird to mutt.
So far however, msmtp has consistently refused to properly send mail. Using
echo "Yet another test" | msmtp -a <account> <test>@gmail.com
with this config
defaults
auth on
tls on
tls_starttls on
tls_trust_file /usr/share/ca-certificates/mozilla/Equifax_Secure_CA.crt
# first gmail address
account gmail
host smtp.gmail.com
port 587
from <mail1>@gmail.com
user <mail1>@gmail.com
password <pass1>
# second gmail address
account gmail2 : gmail
from <mail2>@gmail.com
user <mail2>@gmail.com
password <pass2>
# yahoo
account yahoo
tls_starttls off
host smtp.mail.yahoo.de
from <mail3>@yahoo.de
user <mail3>
password <pass3>
# default
account default : gmail
yields:
1. An empty mail if one of the Gmail accounts is used, including the proper "from" address.
2. A mail with the test sentence if Yahoo is used, but having "youknow@smtp<three digits>.mail.ukl.yahoo.com" as "from".
Any help, please? This is getting really tiresome.

If brisbin33's page comes back up, I highly recommend it. It has a ton of great information, and I configured mine based on that. My msmtprc file contains:
# gmail
account gmail
host smtp.gmail.com
port 587
protocol smtp
auth on
from [email protected]
user [email protected]
password EMAILPASS
tls on
tls_nocertcheck
account default : gmail
So my suggestion is to try these tls* lines, and add the protocol lines. Other than that, I don't know much about it. brisbin33 uses these forums, so he may be able to help you directly

How do I get imap mail yahoo to accept my password?

How do I get imap.mail.yahoo to accept my password?

This is from diannefromohio to Glenn Leblanc:
How do I find the settings. I did clear the cache trying to follow a help yahoo page to get my password to work, but don't know what clearing the cache means.
I went to the Apple Support page and changed my imap password for apple mail. That password doesn't work for Apple Mail. I have a different password I use for Yahoo mail through Safari and that is where I am getting mail right now. My macbook pro is hooked up to a Seagate hd. Is there a way to find an earlier backup and reset my computer to a backup from March? This problem happened April 10th. Don't just answer "yes". I won't know what to do. I need step by step help.

These days, I just go straight to http://mail.yahoo.com/ to log in to web mail. There seems little point in faffing about going through BT's web site.
