12-15-2009 09:20 AMBe frustrated with Yahoo not the Droid.... they are the ones that are causing Yahoo not to work properly, because they want you to purchase Yahoo Plus. Yahoo has agreements with RIM so there email works with a BlackBerry.

12-15-2009 09:52 AMThis is like being frustrated that Internet explorer won't work right on a Mac. Why would either company want to help your cause? It's a google phone... Get gmail.

12-15-2009 10:05 AMHold up guys!! I got my Droid in NOV and felt your pain; then I found the DroidForum
....what a God-send!! I learned a great deal on the care and feeding of the Droid... a lot of which is not in the manual or available on-line. One of the finds was how to set up the Droid to receive Yahoo Mail without buying into the Plus...
txskeets posted this information:
"Go to manual setup > IMAP account and change to these settings....
Imap server - imap.mail.yahoo.com
SMTP Server- smtp.mobile.mail.yahoo.com"
I followed the info and have been getting all of my e-mail from the two Yahoo mail accounts I have. What's really great is that when I open the e-mail window it will update...so that any mail you already read and deleted gets deleted in front of your eyes!
Try it, you'll like it!!
