accessing my yahoo.co.jp email account... little help?

Ok, so I'm having some difficulties setting up my yahoo.co.jp email account on my Aust delivered iPhone. Absolutely no issues with using my yahoo.com.au account...
SSL is turned on for both incoming and outgoing mail.
Incoming mail is "pop.mail.yahoo.co.jp" Incoming server port is 995
Outgoing mail host "smtp.mail.yahoo.co.jp". Outgoing server port 465 (previously tried 587). Optus server is off.
Password authentication is required on both incoming and outgoing mail. User name and password are correct, natch.

"Cannot get mail: The user name or password for "pop.mail.yahoo.co.jp" is incorrect."

If someone could help I'd be really grateful.

Chances are you haven't activated POP access in yahoo.co.jp. I just set up access to my yahoo.co.jp account a few minutes ago and had to go through the mail options and turn on "browser and POP access" to get it to work. Works fine now.
