Why do I receive internal server error (#IS6532) when I Get Messages?

When I "Get Messages" in TB, I receive one of three messages: ● Sending of password for user Major.Howland@yahoo.com did not succeed. Mail server pop.mail.yahoo.com responded: internal server error (#IS6532) ● The mail server responded: From address not verified - see http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/mail/original/manage/sendfrom-07.html. Please verify that your email address is correct in your Mail preferences and try again. ● From address not verified - see http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/mail/original/manage/sendfrom-07.html. Please verify that your email address is correct in your Mail preferences and try again. This has started recently with no changes on my part. I have Yahoo set up to forward a copy to an alternate email address.

Thank you for your help,

Major Howland

The error code seems to be a recurrent Yahoo! issue, viz:

This guy proposes a solution, but since this was some time ago, it's hard to see that it is relevant today. However, it would be good to check you're using the recommended settings.

Given Yahoo's somewhat spotty record, it seems likely that your two other errors are also part of the general unreliability of Yahoo's service. :-(

Zenos,

I accept that this is a recurring problem. Thank you for the Threads to review. It seems to be a Yahoo or AT&T issue. As stated, it is intermittent and as such is not TB. BTW, I am running TB 31.5.0.

Thanks again for the help.

Cheers,

Major Howland
