Email on my PDA?

Hello, Everyone,





I must first confess not not being too familiar with the pay versions of Yahoo. Here's my problem. I have a new pantech duo (well almost new). I set it up when I first received it and was getting my yahoo email on it just fine. Then just recently my email stopped going to my phone. But it started up again. Now it's been several days since I stopped getting them again. I called AT%26amp;T and was told that's because Yahoo won't synch email to your pda on free accounts. Well fine but I clicked on the link that said yahoo mobile and follows the instructions given. On my phone there's a text message with a link. I have a choice of going to that link but when I try it tells me it's a wrong address or something. I have NOT reentered it. I've simply selection the option to go to the link in question.





Help me please. :(

Email on my PDA?
Yahoo free accounts will allow POP3 access only. This means that the first access to the email gets it. If you read the email from your PDA then it will not be available from your computer (although you can choose the "leave on server" option). Sent mail from your PDA will not show up on your computer email either.





The sync is done through IMAP (not POP3) and IMAP is only available on a pay yahoo account.
