When you set up a mail account in Android, you cannot choose "automatic" configuration, since the automatic default will setup the POP3 server connection to Yahoo, which usually deny your access. This is due to Yahoo's POP3 connection is a feature of Yahoo Mail Plus, which is apparently not free of charge. Copyright 2010 by http://GeekTechPost.com
To get around the pesky restriction, instead of POP3 connection, you can set-up an IMAP account with Yahoo using the following parameters:
IMAP Server:
imap.mail.yahoo.comSMTP Server:
smtp.mobile.yahoo.comYou should be able to connect to the server by now.

This did not work for the Cliq. I hope yahoo knows that no one is going to use the client in the future because we are using mobile device more and more now, and other provider like Google offer it for not charge at all (free).
Dear Anonymous user: Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. Seems like Yahoo is doing something on their server side.
