I have gotten the SMTP to work simply with your settings, but the pop
seems to be a problem for me.

here is my set-net in user.r

set-net [
   [EMAIL PROTECTED]
   smtp.mail.yahoo.com
   pop.mail.yahoo.com
]

;and here is the pop code which was in the beta-manual earlier and works
fine on other mailboxes
; but they have all been mailboxes just on my dial up ISP accounts until
trying yahoo.

pop: open pop://mysonscodenam:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
loop length? pop [print first pop pop: next pop]
close pop

;when I try this at home on my real computer, using Miami to dial up and
Rebol to get it, I get a 
;tcp -ERR user/password error, but it reaches the pop.mail.yahoo.com

;when I try it at work on my weenie machine hooked to ethernet, it never
connects to the pop.mail.yahoo.com, so I must have yet to do some clever
firewall stuff

;but in both cases the SMTP works OK.

;any suggestions?
