Windows Forum / Windows Vista / Mail / May 2008problem with yahoo mail
Hello there. I have a problem with receiving emails. Yahoo Messenger tells me that I have new mail, but Windows mail, even hitting Send/Receive, doesn' get only some emails. Thank you. Cristian Rudau Do you get an error message? If so, what does it say? Free US-based Yahoo accounts have webmail access only, no POP access.

It just says that I don't have new mail. I have made some email rules. I have noticed that I usually don't receive the emails that are part of one of the rules. But that is not a must. I receive some of them. It is not a free Yahoo account. It is a Yahoo Plus account, so I have POP access. Thank you. Cristian Rudau > Do you get an error message?

Make sure your account settings agree with this: http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/mail/original/mailplus/pop/pop-14.html SignatureGary VanderMolen, MS-MVP > Hello. > [quoted text clipped - 23 lines] >>> >>> Cristian Rudau My account is a recently created one, 3 days ago. I have checked the link you gave me, and all the settings are right, including ports. I have deleted the email rules previously created and now it seems to be working right. But this is not normal, because i should be able to use this feature also, to organize my mailbox. > Some time ago, Yahoo changed the server name and port settings > for Mail Plus accounts.

Message rules work just like they did in OE, and many of us are using them successfully. So far no one has documented a bug in the message rules. Try your rules one at a time. If one rule gives you trouble, share it with us, and we may be able to help.

As i said, i have deleted the rules, but i still don't receive emails from one specific adress, which was part of one of the rules. The adress is newsletter@automarket.ro. > Well, if the problem went away when you deleted your message > rules, then your message rules were at fault.

Several eastern European countries, including Romania, are known hotbeds for spammers, and as such, mail from those origins is often blocked in server-level spam filters.

There're a way to do it on your machine, but that won't help if it's blocked before it reaches your machine. >I know that, because i am also romanian. > Is there any way that i can exclude that specific adress from the spam [quoted text clipped - 58 lines] >>>>>>>>> >>>>>>>>> Cristian Rudau The problem is not with spam filters on your machine. The server-level spam filters are operated by the administrators of the mail server for your incoming mail. Those filters are not adjustable by mere users. All you can do is get an account with a different mail provider.
