Is the password box auto-capitalising the first letter of your password? Try using the screen keyboard to make sure it doesnt happen) - just a guess.

Try using incoming server:
imap.mail.yahoo.com
port: 143
Outgoing: smtp.mobile.yahoo,com
port: 25

userid: yourname <----without the @yahoo.com
password: yourpassword

Hope this help, cos it work well on mine. :)

I was under the impression that Yahoo only supports IMAP or POP for paid Yahoo! Plus accounts. They don't have a page saying that non-Plus accounts aren't supported, but the only pages about setting up POP or IMAP on their site refer specifically to Plus accounts.

To debug the connection to the mail server, start an X Terminal window and enter
export "CAMEL_DEBUG"="all"
to enable the debug mode of the mail library, and after that
/usr/bin/maemo-summoner /usr/bin/modest.launch -s > /home/user/MyDocs/.documents/log 2>&1

to start the email application. Then try to connect to the mailserver. A logfile named "log" will be in your Home directory (please check for confidential data before attaching).
