I am receiving the following email at least twice a day from Yahoo. It is because I get email through my Palm Treo. I have no idea how to set it up so that I no longer get this warning. This has been happening for at least 6 months.

If I don’t enable the SSL, yahoo writes “you need to make these changes if you want to continue to send/receive email using a mail client.” so I’m not sure what to do, I use Outlook and like how Norton keeps all the spam out of the inbox.
