burdell1 old hand Registered: 14/01/2002 Posts: 931 Loc: Minnetonka, MN	i haven't found a way to do this, but is there a way to use Yahoo! mail's IMAP servers with Mail instead of a POP account? I can't find a way. the only way i could think of would be if I could somehow use the settings for the iphone mail app....

Should work. _________________________ Bitt Faulk
