verizon yahoo email receiving isues on vista windows email?

[FrankO]

I have a verizon.yahoo.net email account that was working fine prior to setting up my new dell with vista. I can send email, but receiving is unpredictable, works sometimes, most times the email client times out, (no file attachments). It appears as if messages are receiving, but the program will time out before the messages are loaded. Hours later when checking email, the messages appear. I'm getting the run around from verizon, dell and microsoft. I feel confident the incoming/outgoing mail settings are correct. They are the same as worked with 98SE setup. I've tried downloading other email clients, Mozilla Firebird with same results. Suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Yahoo has upgraded its servers. You will need to make a small change to your Yahoo! Mail Incoming Mail and outgoing mail servers address by adding the word "plus" as below.
* Incoming mail server (pop3): plus.pop.mail.yahoo.com
* Outgoing mail server (SMPT) : plus.smtp.mail.yahoo.com
You should Check your setting with the links below.
