Hi all,
My 1st post … and 1st Android OS phone … and 1st Samsung phone after years with WindowsMobile phones (last being hTC Diamond2).  Cool

Need some guru assistance …  Lips Sealed

The issue is with my yahoo mail ( I self-configure it instead of using Yahoo’s application), my settings are :

Type of account : IMAP
Incoming settings>Username : xxxxx (my yahoo username)
        >Password : (my yahoo password)
                            >IMAP server : imap.mail.yahoo.com
                            >Port : 993
                            >Security type : SSL (Accept all certificates)
                            >IMAP path prefix : Optional
Outgoing settings>SMTP server : smtp.mail.yahoo.com
                            >Port : 465
                            >Security type : SSL (Accept all certificates)
                            >Require sign-in : Yes

Issues 1 :
Say, I am using WiFi point A to download my yahoo mail it will downloading all my yahoo mail without problem but when I am using other WiFi point say, B to access my yahoo mail, it will first “delete” all my yahoo mail in my Galaxy S then reload all the mails again !!!  Evil and it happens whenever I am using different WiFi access point to check my yahoo mail which is very annoying.  Evil I have 2 other homail accounts in my Galaxy S (set manually using POP3) which have no issue if I am using difference WiFi point. Any solution on that?

Issue 2 :
I notice unlike WindowsMobile I actually cant view my mail (be it yahoo;hotmail…)offline because whenever I open my mail it seem the phone will trigger a data connection (eventhough I never click Refresh button) is it by nature or what (I already uncheck “Background data option” under settings, why is it so?

Thanks  Embarrased

Apparently SGS has issue with yahoo mail (hotmail;live mail are ok) they are some users ranting on unable to check yahoo over WiFi (i experienced that and can be solved by selecting the security to SSL) but it would encounter the issue i posted earlier ... sigh, what a shame.  Undecided
