Cannot get into my yahoo prodigy.net email

Email is a digital way to send/receive messages. An email address is like your home address, a way for people to send messages to each other. Email requires a unique username that no one else has ( to make sure everyone gets the right mail!) and you'll have to come up with a password to protect it so other people cannot access it without permission. Email is MUCH faster than typical post office mail or letter. Where regular mail can take several days to get delivered, email is typically received with several minutes, anywhere in the world!

Gmail is a type of email provider. You can get email through your paid internet service provider (ISP), such as bellsouth, comcast, AT&T or from a free provider such as google, msn, yahoo, and many others. The layout when you check is email is a little different for each service, but they all work the same way.

an email is made of 4 parts
1) the "unique username"
2) the "@" symbol (the symbol is called "at")
3) the service provider "gmail, hotmail, msn, yahoo, etc..."
4) a domain extension ".com, .net, .edu, .gov, etc..."

So, a typical email address looks like
[email protected]
-or-
[email protected]
-or-
[email protected]

It just depends on your unique username and who is hosting your email.

Check the security settings of your mail server to ensure you're not being blocked.

Here are some 'standard' settings that may work with your system.

I can receive but can't send mail using my POP mail client. Why? If you're able to receive but unable to send mail using your POP mail client (such as Outlook), please review the possible trouble areas below.
SMTP Server
In the fight against unsolicited commercial email (spam), some Internet service providers require their subscribers to send mail through the ISP's own SMTP servers. If you experience problems sending email, please contact your ISP to determine if it requires different SMTP server settings. You will need to use the ISP's SMTP server in place of Yahoo!'s SMTP server when configuring your POP mail client.
The following is a partial list of ISPs that require you to use their SMTP servers. If your ISP is among them, try replacing the Yahoo! SMTP server with the ISP server in your POP mail client settings, or consult the ISP's help files. (Learn more about configuring your client.) If your ISP does not appear in the list below, please contact your ISP directly for more information.
MSN smtp.email.msn.com NetZero smtp.netzero.net Verizon outgoing.verizon.net Earthlink/MindSpring Please visit its help pages AT&T Please visit its help pages Bell Sympatico Please visit its help pages SBC See below SBC Your SMTP settings will vary based on your account setup. Choose the SMTP setting that corresponds to the email address most like the one provided to you by your ISP.
[email protected] smtp.ameritech.yahoo.com [email protected] smtp.flash.yahoo.com [email protected] smtp.nvbell.yahoo.com [email protected] smtp.pacbell.yahoo.com [email protected] smtp.prodigy.yahoo.com [email protected] smtp.sbcglobal.yahoo.com [email protected] smtp.snet.yahoo.com [email protected] smtp.swbell.yahoo.com [email protected] smtp.wans.yahoo.com For more information about AT&T's SMTP requirements, please visit the AT&T help center or contact AT&T DSL support at 877-SBC-DSL5 (877-722-3755) or AT&T DIAL support at 866-SBC-DIAL (866-722-3425).
SMTP Port
If you have adjusted your SMTP server, and you're still experiencing a problem, you may need to use an alternate port. In an attempt to control spam, some Internet service providers now block port 25, which means you may need to use port 587 when sending email via Yahoo!'s SMTP server. Learn how to change ports.
Antivirus Protection
If you have Norton AntiVirus enabled on your computer, you may have to make configuration adjustments to use Outlook or Outlook Express. For more information, visit the Symantec web site.
Authentication
The Yahoo! SMTP server requires authentication. Learn more.

You could check your friends/block list. make sure she is not on the block lisr.

Or; I would try opening another email account just for her, and see if new one works.

ATT tech support & several web forums confirm that sending a SMS from your computer via an IM, (like Yahoo Messenger,etc.) to a PDA cellular is web based and requires a data plan. However, you can send a text message via email to cellular phones and receive replies. It is easy and just as fast. You have to know the recipients carrier to obtain the proper email address. For instance, to an ATT phone the address is: [email protected] Remember that most carriers have a character limit (ATT is 160).

See this link for a complete list of other carriers & email addresses- http://www.mydigitallife.info/2008/10/28/send-free-text-message-with-hundreds-of-email-to-sms-gateway-or-internet-web-sms-from-operator/

If someone registered with it before but hasn't used it for a while, yahoo disables that account and bounces back all emails sent there.
