i'm having no luck setting up my incredible to check my verizon email.  Does anyone have any suggestions?

 

I'm using the same settings i use in thunderbird

Incoming.verizon.net port 110

outgoing.verizon.net  port 25

 

It simply does not get the email. ever . 

 

any ideas?

Ok, as soon as I try to use incoming.yahoo.verizon.net  it no longer accepts my username/pw combo (both which I know are correct because I use them every day).  I get no password error when I have incoming.verizon.net  as my server which is what I have in thunderbird, and where I do get email correctly using that server.    It's only on the incredible where i am having issues. 

 

So, why won't it accept my username/pw ?  (i have tried my actual user name vz***** name and my alias name)
