I have my mail on my N9 set at 20 minute intervals. It hasn't picked up in 2-3 hours. Any thoughts behind this?
I'm struggling with battery life and now this. Not off to a good start on simple operations.

Thanks for the reply. Well, here is what is interesting. One is an AT&T account and he other is a yahoo. I set them both up as "other". When I delete one, almost immediately the e-mails on the server start to deliver to my phone.
I'm starting to wonder if I'm not going to be able to have both e-mail accounts. Almost like they are competing against one another and causing the phone to hang up.
*Didn't set them up in MfE. Also not in power saving mode.

There are tons of settings I don't know the answer to for setting up yahoo in MfE. Are they posted somewhere for dummies like myself?

Sorry I can't be of more help.

Well, after a whole day pretty much of tweaking I may have taken care of the problem.
The default yahoo e-mail configuration has the "free-nokia" extension at the beginning of it. I assume that is for Ovi Mail??
That has cured my battery drain issue and both my e-mail accounts are now working as "other mail account".
