Hi see me response (in another category, but exactly the same as you have).
Its fixed now!
Hi,
having just upgraded my iPhone 4 to 6.1.3 two days ago and after reading James Ward's comments on BT Yahoo Mail (all bets are off), I thought I was truly doomed.
I tried umpteen manual configuration changes and also deleted the Yahoo mail Account I had on my phone.
BTW, I have a "name@btopenworld.com" email address.
I was also able to login with same username/password as above to the BT Yahoo mail on the Web just fine and see all my emails, so it was just through the Mail App on my iPhone I had the problem (and only after the upgrade to 6.1.3)
At various points I had the following error messages:
Error message 1
============
The IMAP Server apple.imap.mail.yahoo.com is not responding.
Check network connection.
Check "Incoming Mail Server" field.
Error message 2
============
The Operation couldn't be completed.
(MFMessageErrorDomain error 1032)
Error message 3
=============
Server unavailable
Please try again later.
So after 2 calls from Apple (yes they called me, no cost), I have it working;
Here are the settings I did:
POP account Information
name, email as above
Incoming Mail Server
host name: mail.btinternet.com
username: email as above
password: password
Outgoing Mail Server
SMTP: mail.btinternet.com
(selecting the Outgoing Mail Server above...)
Primary Server: mail.btinternet.com (ON)
(selecting the Primary mail Server above...)
Server (ON)
Hostname: mail.btinternet.com
Username: email as above
password: password
Use SSL (OFF)
Authentication: password (ticked)
Server Port: 25
Go back to main Account screen
Select your Btopenworld account just created
scroll down and select Advanced
Use SSL (OFF)
Authentication: password (ticked)
Server Port 110
S/MIME: OFF
After I did that and I opened up my mail app, it synced and downloaded all my emails!! :-)
Nothing lost.
Thanks to Apple for their help.
