If you are paying for Yahoo! Premium mail service, the Yahoo! site has very
clear directions...

If you have one of the Yahoo! national accounts which allow free POP3/SMTP
access, the appropriate Yahoo! Mail site has very clear directions...

Four different posts since 9:34 AM, asking the same question? You are one
impatient puppy! And, in the time that lapsed between your first, and your
last posts, you could have found a pictorial example, in detail, at the
Yahoo! site.

Oh, I read it, all right. But he could have found the same information that
you posted, direct from the Yahoo! site, himself, and sooner than your
response to his fourth request; had he taken the trouble to avail himself of
the Yahoo! help function.

Note the time/date of his first post:

Subject: Help starting e-mail account I'm New
Date: Thu, 10 Jun 2004 09:34:01 -0700

Note the time/date of your follow up to his fourth post:

Subject: setting up e-mail
Date: Thu, 10 Jun 2004 22:55:55 +0100

Do you suppose he couldn't have gotten the information sooner than the five
hour lapse between his first request, and your response? If you had read my
post, you would have understood; I wasn't telling him to check the Yahoo!
site, I was telling him that he could have gotten the answer quicker had he
checked the Yahoo! site. Indeed, had he checked the site first, the question
would not have been necessary at all!!! :P
