I use eprompter but with the Yahoo changes it's not working now. They're working on a fix.
I heard I could use ypops with eprompter but can't get ePrompter to work.
Can I use the Yahoo free e-mail and still use a pop3 service?
If I can, can someone walk me through the configuration of epromter and ypops?

Sorry, here is the initial message I get when I start YPOPS!
Unable to create SMTP server socket. Please ensure that another copy of this program is not running. If you are using an antivirus program with e-mail scanning enabled, you might have to change the port and then make the appropriate change in your e-mail applicationYPOPS! Will not service any other requests from your e-mail applications till you make the necessary changes.

Yes, but Yahoo charges for pop3 service. Go with Gmail, that one is free and works very well.

Forward Yahoo {if you can with Yahoo} to Gmail during the transition of notifying people

Have to upgrade. POP and forwarding are both in the \"plus\" package.

give people plenty of advance notice before switching, but its not worth it to pay for something that is that basic.
does yahoo support auto-replies?
