I get an "Unknown Error 0x80040201" when I send mail from my Yahoo account in Outlook – how do I fix it pls?-Collection of common programming errors

• Go either to Google—or the Web search bar, and type in “error 0x80040201″. There are about 20 or so pages of different sites dealing with that error #—-much too many to include in this post—but you’ll find your answer there. Just a few that I read, seems to indicate a corruption when using another default mail–((?Yahoo”?))– and sending through Outlook.

  Good luck.

• It’s just one of those things. Use a different email program like Thunderbird or something and transfer your settings to that, and it’ll probably work fine. Personally, i’m happy with just using the web interface, and actually that was my original reason for using Yahoo.
