I couldn't get a free account to work with Yahoo! and Icedove and the documented settings for SMTP Auth. Historically folks claiming to do this were using YPOPs, which is an interface that sits in the middle and converts stuff. I'd be curious to see Viv's settings, if she got it to work, as I assume it must be how the username is represented or some such. I wondered perhaps it is different for BT Openworld users, as I think their mail servers are on the same network as the Yahoo servers, but they are on different addresses, so I assume different servers/configs.
