Starting about 1:00 am Sunday outlook.com stopped retrieving emails from AT&T U-Verse/Yahoo. Going into options there was a message next to the account that stated the following message:
There was a problem getting messages from your other accounts.
I went into accounts and the AT&T/Yahoo account had the error and the details stated:
7/21/13 We couldn't get your messages: Make sure your user name and password are correct.
Sorry to say that no my credentials are not incorrect, I tested by using a local email client using the same credentials and I was able to get pop access to my email. I would say that with the time frame (usually a maintenance window) that either Microsoft or Yahoo changed something that prevents mail being received at Outlook.com
My number one issue is getting this working again and Microsoft and AT&T Yahoo doesn't provide any type of real support options.
My second issue is why did I have to dig all the way down into settings to find out that Outlook.com is having trouble. Couldn't they have put a message on the main email page?
What can be done to get resolution to this issue?
Thanks...
