I thought you were suggesting that legacy accounts don't redirect users to Yahoo Mail Plus, and non-legacy (new) accounts do.

Yes, that was what I was guessing, on the basis that I can POP my free Yahoo a/c and E7er can't.

You never said whether your Yahoo a/c is legacy, if there is such a thing. Oh, I see! You meant you had just created a brand new a/c and therefore it can't be a legacy a/c.

OK, so it's puzzling why E7er can't do the same however old his a/c is.

Exactly! Brand new account, can't be legacy, no redirect to Yahoo Mail Plus.

Yeah. Mind you I'm puzzled in general, as I thought we were talking about BT Yahoo Mail, and now we seem to be talking about Yahoo Mail instead. And we're also ridiculously OT for this thread now.

Yes, sorry, I read your post originally that you had created a mail client a/c from scratch to an existing Yahoo a/c.

Yes, it was originally said that you can't POP a BT Yahoo Mail and, as I showed you can POP a native Yahoo Mail a/c, it was unlikely that BT Yahoo Mail would restrict it; on top of the fact that BT Yahoo Mail is intended as the email for BT users. If you see what I mean!

Yes, this thread is all over the place. It was originally about EE fibre. This led to the advisability of letting EE take over your BT phone line. Then someone threw a curve early on by introducing the irrelevant BT BB from which this topic emerged .

being the OP I did start to wonder how this had wandered so far from my original question I guess this means not to many posters on TBB have taken up EE's Fibre offering lol

A fair assumption I think.
