Hi there, I have exactly this problem but my mail is affected more for sending mail than receiving. I have a paid Yahoo Plus account as I created the email address years ago when I lived in the States but for some reason, I am pointed to the .co.uk pop and smtp servers. I have been in Spain and Morocco on different ISPs and returned to the UK 4 weeks ago using a friend's Talk Talk broadband account. I began using WLM about 3 months ago. I have never had a problem until the last 2 weeks when I noticed that I wasn't sending mail, then not receiving. WLM would continuously ask me for my username and password and then would just not send mail or anything. After trying to find a solution to the problem via google, I removed the Yahoo account completely from WLM and then re-created it. It worked fine for a couple of days and now, once again, it is just not sending mail at all, giving me the same message above. I have to believe that this is a problem with WLM, but not sure. It is so frustrating as I don't always realise that my email hasn't been sent. Grateful for any advice here, I like WLM in that it manages my hotmail, gmail, and yahoo accounts but this is driving me crazy! TracyCK

I think this is an OS problem but im not 100% sure. Basically as i type, my pc opens up Yahoo Mail in a new browser window, it seems it is random keys that cause this, as I have pressed each key one at a time and it never results in the same key popping up Yahoo Mail. Its getting very annoying as I have to stop typing half way through a word, close Yahoo Mail then go back and carry on. Last night I was posting a short topic elsewhere, and it popped up 17 times! Anyone know what's going on? And what can I do to stop it? Ive tried uninstalling the Yahoo toolbar and anything to do with Yahoo. Any other suggestions please?
