I use SSL encryption and had selected LOGIN after clicking check for supported 
types.

But I just hit check supported types again and LOGIN and all the other choices 
except PASSWORD now have lines through them.  


So I just changed to PASSWORD and tried Send/Receive and got a different error 
message.  Now it is:

Error while Fetching Mail.

Failed to read a valid greeting from POP server pop.att.yahoo.com


Thanks for the help!
