Thanks, NoOp.
POP Port 1065: fires up on startup.
SMTP Port 1066: fires up on startup.
IMAP: disabled.
Also changed account settings for one account as above but get a new
error message:
'Sending password did not succeed. Mail server localhost responded:
negative vibes from ..@xxxxxxxxxxxxx'
Progress, at least!

Has some items relating to the new hotmail stuff - I only use yahoo.
I found that for Yahoo I had to put in the full name@xxxxxxxxx rather
than just name. Make sure that you have the full username@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
in *both* your POP and SMTP settings.

I presume that since I'm getting a 'Negative Vibes' message, that I am
actually getting to the outside world. I would feel happier if I could
use ports 110 and 25 as normal rather than switching to ports 1065 and
1066 as recommended earlier. Still, at least I have green indicators on
the webmail panel instead of red ones!
However, the settings I have for the WebMail extension were imported
directly from a (working) set up on an old windoze machine, so all the
usernames have previously worked.
The Google group does not say what the Negative Vibes message actually
indicates!
Persevering...

I wouldn't persevere too much... I am getting negative vibes msgs for my
previously working Yahoo connections as well. Seems that these webmail
proxies all seem to have problems; you/we are afterall leaching off of a
service that is meant for http access anyway & serving up ad's for those
free services are how they pay for it.
So, I've just dumped all of the webmail extensions et al off of my
systems & figure that if I really want pop access to a free Yahoo
account (I don't) I'll fork out the $20 a year for the plus option...
$20 a year is certainly cheaper than the time that it takes to mess with
webmail etc.
