I'm in China on China Telecom. My POP/SMTP settings are correct and incoming port is 995, security is disabled. It's worked for the past month just fine and now it has just stopped. It checks for mail in my yahoo inbox and connects just fine and then there is nothing downloaded.

Thanks, already was using SSL. For some reason, it fixed itself and emails coming in as of this am. Must have been China Telecom f*ing with me.

If the port is 995 you will need to enable SSL security as this is a secure port.
