Honestly I'm about ready to give up on trying to use Outlook.com. I can't believe it can't do a simple thing like connect to a Yahoo Plus Email Account that Outlook Express 15 years ago could and Live Mail can. I've read through the other helps and it appears to be a common problem that's been going on for almost a year.
1.) The error I am getting is: We couldn't sign in to your POP3 server. Please make sure your username and password are correct.
2.) The email address (username) does have an underscore in it but I have also tried my other account that does not.
3.) The password only has letters and numbers in it and is between 8 and 12 characters.
4.) My yahoo account is a plus account
5.) As I said I can connect to the account just fine with Windows Live Mail and actually at first tried importing the account and messages from Windows Live Mail.
6.) I have tried both the plus.pop.mail.yahoo.com and pop.mail.yahoo.com for the pop server.
7.) For the username I have tried both the name and the *** Email address is removed for privacy ***
8.) Yes I'm sure the password is correct.
Basic Settings in Outlook.com
Name = my name
email = *** Email address is removed for privacy ***
POP3
Server address = plus.pop.mail.yahoo.com
Port=995
Require a secure connection is checked
Leave messages on server is checked
Username= my_name
Password = 8 to 12 letters
SMTP
Send email using your provider's server (recipient will not see your Outlook address)
Server Address = smtp.mail.yahoo.com
Port = 465
Requires a secure connection (SSL/TLS) is checked
Use the same username and password to send and receive email is checked
I often get a message after sending an email, and i'm not sure that it went out or not.
"Your server has unexpectedly terminated the connection. Possible causes for this include server problems, network problems, or a long period of inactivity.
Details:
This IMAP command could not be sent to the server before the connection was terminated.
Server: imap.gmail.com
Protocol: IMAP
Port 993
Secure (SSL):1
code:800ccc0f
I don't think that it is due to long periods of inactivity, and I don't seem to have any other server or network problems. It pops up quite often.
Windows 7,
