AT&T mail settings problem

Alright, so I'm decently adept at figuring things out, but I have been stumped by AT&T mail on my androids. Samsung Infuse and Acer Iconia A200.

I followed the POP settings that are posted pretty much everywhere, to no avail.

Incoming: Pop.att.yahoo.com - port 995 ssl
Outgoing: Smtp.att.yahoo.com - Port 465 ssl

Exactly like everyone says to do. But no matter what (regardless of whether I'm on 3G or wi-fi), it always says "username or password incorrect"
But they aren't incorrect. I've double, triple, quadruple checked them.

This happens with both my infuse and my Iconia.

Now what?

And please don't tell me to set up a gmail account to forward it to. That may be your preference, but that's not what I'm asking for. My friend's AT&T email works on his Infuse and his galaxy tab with those settings. Why won't mine work on mine?

Thanks for any help.
