The server that your email address is on is having problems.  It will get resolved, it is not you.\n\nWhen my Yahoo is down, my sister, in another state, can access her account.  We are on different servers.

Yahoo is having problems....

Yahoo! Stated that there is an internal system server error which is periodically occuring. This occured from last night actually. I was able to check my mail this morning, but that was after logging in 5 times. One trick you can try is to log into Yahoo! Mail Canada, UK/Ireland, or India (or somewhere that speaks english) to access mail - since they use a networked but seperate server. Let us know if you are having luck.

You need to give more information, i.e. what email client are you using?  (Lookout express, Eudora, Web-based Yahoo, etc.)\n\nBut likely you client is broken, reboot your computer and if that doesn't work, reinstall you email program!

Just wait a little while and try again later. Yahoo has been having some trouble the last day or 2.  \nYesterday my husbands mail was doing the same thing as yours. This morning it was fine. \nToday mine it doing the same thing.

It seems as if the Yahoo techs may be performing upgrades currently.  I'm having a different problem with composing email at this time (ie: there's no active area block to type the message in).  The last time this happened, the techs were upgrading the system, but didn't have the courtesy to send out an alert email indicating the system would be down.  It appears that some people never learn from their previous mistakes.

Yes, the problem you are having is either the smtp or the pop3 setting you entered is wrong , two likely the server is down that you are connecting to and you may try again, then thirdly you have to be sure you are using your correct username or password

probably yahoo is causing your problems.  right now yahoo is causing issues with yahelite a program used to chat that most of the time when you type others cant see it, try restarting the chat or your comp.

try another browser or computer. \nif it works fine, then the problem is with the email service provider. \n\nif it does not work fine then the problem is with your computer. \n\ntry re-installing the browser that you are currently using.

I have the same problem!!! I can receive e-mails but I can't compose.  When I try to, the text box doesn't come out.  I have no idea what might be the problem.  I thought i was the only one with the problem, but now I know that I'm not.  I have been like this for almost 2 weeks.  I can't compose in my home computer but i can in my school computer.  I have no idea what might be the problem

Do you remember your email account and password? If both of them are valid plus your Internet connection is okay, then probably it's caused by a server problem (the server was down for some reasons). Other thing you may check is your email account configuration (if you use an email client). The last thing is checking your firewall (does it block your email client?)

Well you have not given us anywhere near enough info to answer this. What address can they not reply to?\n\nIf a new server then DNS may be the issue. If Yahoo email then the administrator may have blocked access to Yahoo.\n\nNo way to asnwer such a vague question.

I cannot log into my messenger, i've restarted, and i've changed usernames and retyped passwords, but nothing has seemed to help. I believe it's yahoo's problem... but you can sign on using the "firewall with no proxies" i just did.... what some one told me to do.... cant believe it worked....

1.  Try restarting your computer.  Open Yahoo messenger before you open other programs, it may be conficting with another program you have running.\n\n2.  Uninstall and reinstall Yahoo Messenger.  \n\n3.  Try a third party program (like Trillian or Qnext) and see if you can connect to Yahoo from there.  If you can, then the problem is definitely your install of Yahoo Messenger.

Yahoo has been having trouble all over the place since they introduced the new beta e-mail version. It is slow and buggy as hell. Even after switching back, I now have to repeatedly hit the refresh button to get past the error messages generated trying to access mty account. You can also hit the back button repeatedly and go absolutely nowhere.\n\nReally hope SOMEONE GOT FIRED...

The only help I can give you is something I found in a discussion forum> I have copied & pasted it below:\n Courtesy of MVPS.org\n\n    quote:Socket Error: 10060, Error Number: 0x800CCC0E\n    10060 = Connection timed out\n    0x800CCC0E = Cannot connect to server.\n\n    Increasing the Server Timeout in Tools, Accounts, Mail, Properties, Advanced may help.\n\nIts worth a try ..slide the slider to full 5mins\nGood luck
