Dear AT&T Yahoo! Customer:
We noticed that you are accessing email using non-secure settings in your email software.
We would like to ensure that your AT&T Yahoo! Member ID, password, and email messages are transmitted securely between your mail software (such as Outlook or Outlook Express) and the AT&T Yahoo! Mail servers. In order to meet this need, please enable SSL via the instructions that are available on the Help site.
Since multiple email notifications have already been sent out about this, we request that you please make the necessary changes immediately. Remember, you need to make these changes if you want to continue to send/receive email using a mail client.
Thank you for your cooperation,
AT&T Yahoo! Customer Support |

A friend was having the same problem on an iMac G4 running OS X 10.5.6. ATT would not help her saying it was an Apple problem.
After trying all the solutions shown here, the only thing I was able to get to work was changing the SMTP server info to be:
SMTP Server: plus.smtp.mail.yahoo.com
Port: 467
Use SSL: checked
Authentication: Password
entered user name and password.
This is currently working.
Additional info:
My friend recently received a new DSL modem from ATT. Her previous modem did not handle the PPoE connection, it was done by the iMac. The new modem seems to be handling the PPoE connection and issuing a NAT address to the iMac.
I'm not sure if the cause of the problem is in the modem, or on the ATT/Yahoo SMTP server. |

For whatever reason the problem just started for me yesterday afternoon. I updated my outbound server to smtpauth.sbcglobal.net and the issue went away. |
