cox has transferred their email to yahoo, now outlook will not accept the email account how do you connect

It's puzzling that this suggestion was successful to get one of my Cox/Yahoo email accounts up and running in Outlook, but it has yet to work for another. (I've followed all of the steps in the video posted by Jerwemy Moore's post and used the pop.mail rather than imap.mail suggested by Summerland Citizen as these procedures finally helped me connect to Outlook.)

Is there a possibility that the traffic is just too high on Yahoo due to the Cox transition and I need to be patient beyond the two days that I've been trying? The Outlook message says that it "times out" and to try again. Any ideas?

Thank you.

see my post on page 3

Yes - I will give that a try. Just more work lol

Thank you.

Yes - thanks. Bummer going to be some work to move all over. At least they are not lost. Looks like I cannot put the folders under the inbox though and I will have to scroll down to see. Too bad.

I appreciate your getting back to me.

I had changed the incoming setting to imap.mail.yahoo.com as I had seen on the instructions. But now that I took your suggestion and input pop.mail.yahoo.com I am receiving emails in Outlook. Thank you SO much!

Thanks again!
