Hi there,

I want to syncronize my yahoo mail using my outlook software. I created a new email acount, defined it a HTTP mail, inserted "OTHER" in "HTTP mail service provider", wrote my email, and my logon information. However, I get an error "inbox syncornizing headers" 0x80070057....

pls help.

cheers.

You can't set up a yahoo, or even a msn e mail acount in outlook. Hotmail works, but is extremely slow. I still prefer to check my hotmail through the hotmail website, because you can do it alot faster. You can delete more than one message at a time and empty your junk mail all at once.And then, check it with outlook to save time. That way you can save the ones you want to keep. I don't even have hotmail setup in outlook anymore, because I rarely get messages I want to save. If I ever do, I'll just forward them to my pop3 server account.

I'm not really stupid...... I just play one on TV.
