Getting my email client to work with my new service

I have been using an email client, called "TheBat" for almost a decade with my dialup service and am in the process of configuring it with Verizon-yahoo.

I have entered the new POP and SMTP settings: incoming.yahoo.verizon.net and outgoing.yahoo.verizon.net, but am still unable to get the client to retrieve any of my email.

Can someone assist me or point me to a thorough link that explains how to set up a POP-based email client.

Okay, I can now receive email with my client BUT

now, I need to figure out what I'm doing wrong because I cannot send email. I'm getting the
"server reports error;the response is: unimplemented #5.5.1.

I'm using "outgoing.yahoo.verizon.net (as Verizon suggests),"
secure to regular port , port 587.

Okay, here's the solution for any future Verizon and TheBat! users (or other email clients):

Be sure to set the port to 25, connection: Regular.
