If I understand your replies correctly, If my default e-mail account is yahoo mail, I don't need to make any changes to the e-mail wizard because yahoo is a web based e-mail service? I should say that I don't really understand the terminology concerning smtp and pop3 even though I've also did searches on these topics.
Not all yahoo acounts are web based, the free one is, but if you have a paid for yahoo email account then that is a pop3 (receive email) account, smtp (send email, Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) is the sending part of an email account.
Do you download your email with a mail client (outlook express, etc.) or do you log on to your Yahoo account online and browser your email?
On the service settings page in the wizard do I need to type in Yahoo mail and all my other e-mail accounts as well? As you can see, I don't know a lot about sending and receiving e-mail but I would like to properly configure my antivirus program to protect all my e-mail accounts. Thanks to all,
John
If you have an email program that is recognised by MPW, then there is usually a dropdown list of accounts that you can select the default.
It would be very helpful if you let us know more about your system as we can be guessing trying to resolve this, OS email program, etc.
