I changed my e-mail account to comply with new ATT requirements using these
instructions:To locate and verify your email settings in Outlook Express:

Click on the Tools menu in Outlook Express.
Click on Accounts.
Click on the Mail tab.
Select your AT&T Yahoo! email account and click on the Properties button.
Click on the Servers tab.
Verify these settings:
For "My incoming mail server is a ____ server," the field contains POP3.
The Incoming mail (POP3) and Outgoing mail (SMTP) fields contain the correct
mail server settings.
The Account name field contains your full AT&T Yahoo! email address (e.g.,
(e-mail address removed)).
The box next to Log on using Secure Password Authentication is NOT checked.
The My server requires authentication box is checked.
Click on the Advanced tab.
Verify these settings:
Note: When updating the secure sever settings, check SSL checkbox first,
then update the port number setting.

Under Outgoing mail (SMTP) should be port 465 and the box next to This
server requires a secure connection (SSL) is checked.
Under Incoming mail (POP3) should be port 995 and the box next to This
server requires a secure connection (SSL) is checked.
Click OK.
Click Close.

Now I can't send e-mails because my outgoing SMTP does not support SSL
connection. Help! Thansk. Paula
