Hi! For a few days now, I am experiencing problems with sending yahoo messages. I keep getting the "Login to server smtp.mail.yahoo.com failed." message, even though both the server information and the password are correct. I have reset the passwords - just to make sure. Sometimes I can send an email, and at other times I cannot. What can I do?

Below all the details from the Troubleshooting Information section:

There are are number of people who complained about not being able to send messages via the Yahoo SMTP server recently. Check with Yahoo if they have problems.
