Send / Receive Error in Outlook 2010

Windows 7
32-bit

I use SBCGlobal / Yahoo as my email provider.

The Outgoing Mail Server is: smtp.sbcglobal.yahoo.com.
The Incoming Mail Server is: pop.sbcglobal.yahoo.com.

The error I am getting is:
Receiving' reported error (0x800CCC0F): "The connectionto the server was interrupted.  If this problem continues, contact your server administrator or Internet Service Provider(ISP).  The server responded: -ERR Cannot connect to POP server 98.138.12.111 (98.138.12.111:110), NB connect error 1460'.

Similar error message for Sending.

I've googled the error and nothing seems to work.

Any ideas are welcome.

Thanks.

Straight-forward answer, wrong server names for POP3 and SMTP.

POP server:
pop.att.yahoo.com
Use an encrypted connection (SSL) - POP3 port 995

SMTP server:
smtp.att.yahoo.com
Use an encrypted connection (SSL) - SMTP port 465

do you have a normal internet connection?
and can you ping yahoo from a dos box?
Hello,

Do you have static IP, if yes try using any different connection. if it dont work with different then  it will due to antivirus/firewall of your network try to disable / reconfigure and check.

Thanks Aditya

nobus and afitya - thanks for the responses.  I don't those are the problems.  I have another, non-SBCGlobal account that works fine.

Jackie Man - thanks for the info.  I'll give it a try a little later.
Do you need further assistance?
