Yes, the "Save Password" box is checked.
The auto settings use the imap service, where as outlook uses pop3. Anyone trying to change their settings, it won't work. It just insists on you using the imap setting.
I had to delete my yahoo account (hold down the stylus over yahoo! and select delete), then re-enter using username@yaho.co.uk (note the missing o!). It then allows you to set the settings.
Set the incoming as: pop.mail.yahoo.co.uk (you may need to select pop3 from the drop down menu)
Outgoing as : smtp.mail.yahoo.co.uk
set your user name and password. Remember to click "save password"
