It worked!!! after several tries. I upgrade my yahoo email to the latest version and tried while my email acct was open on my computer and then it finally worked. I guess was a combination of all. Thanks!
I downloaded the app and it works fine, but I’d like to fine-tune the settings and can’t figure that out. Can I set it to 1. only check mail when I ask for it 2. only download new mail, not everything in my account?
