My Inspire receives Yahoo mail just fine, but when I try to reply it kicks back with an error about not being able to connect. Can someone please review my Yahoo outgoing settings?:

SMTP server: smtp.mobile.mail.yahoo.com
Security type: SSL
Server port: 465

Which one is wrong?

Thanks

[edit] found another post saying that outgoing needs to be:
SMTP Server: android.smtp.mail.yahoo.com
SSL
Server Port: 465


Tried that and it said it couldn't connect, so I set it back to the smtp setting I had, and now it won't connect with that either. Grrrr....
