Ryan, I been looking for answers to my problem everywhere, but I can’t find help.

I own two yahoo accounts, my personal account and my business account, both of them at yahoo.

Lets call them:
personal@yahoo.com
buisness@yahoo.com.mx

As I have to be always connected to my Ymess, cause all my friends and family living far away could try to reach me, that’s why I want to manage both accounts inside my personal Yahoo mail (that’s also because is really a headache to sign-out each account to check the other one

I’d like to receive mails form both accounts in my personal account so I can Check them and answer them.

I’ been trying to set it at my personal account options, but I cant find the right yahoo server so I can do it, I been trying with “pop.mail.yahoo.com” server, but it doesn’t help. I tried too: “pop.mail.yahoo.com.mx” but it didn’t work either

Can someone tell me which is the yahoo server that I have to type so I can use my both mail accounts signed in just one of them?

thanks for your help

Albert

I use a mac. My pop email account at mail. btinternet.com ( hosted by yahoo) will send but not receive. – Repeatedly asks for my password. The webmail service works. I called tech support- put through to an idiot who persuaded me to delete the email account therefore deleting all the archived smails from the last 5 years. – Aarch… But no improvement. New email account had same problem.

see the work around to click edit, then select the external account and turn off retrieve new messages only, then after saving that change, again from the list of external accounts on the edit screen, click the link to check mail.

this work around worked for me for the old external account that had been working, and the new external account i was trying to set up

to yahoo programmers, work more, party less, please

Thanks for this tip – I was getting the same errors from the “check mail” page; this tip worked for me on the account that HAD been working for years.

Yahoo mail (and all of Yahoo) is really going downhill – like MicroSoft, they keep “improving” it only to screw it up instead.

If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it !!!!!!

Every new version of Yahoo mail they come out with is full of bugs, and deletion of features that not only were we acustomed to, but also had the nice benefit OF WORKING !!!
