please help
and about the same issue with Aim
Try:
Under proxy settings, do "Global proxy settings"
I have two yahoo accounts. One worked fine and second one was disabled. In proxy settings I had "Global proxy settings" so I switched it to "No proxy" and now the disabled yahoo account works.
In AIM account proxy seetings I also set "No proxy" and it works properly too. Even if it connects quite slow...
i have tryed both global proxy and no proxy and neather of them are working.
