Re: [fetchyahoo-general] fetchyahoo version 2.13.4 released

[Chris J. <ch...@je...>]

   Dear Ravi,

   Thank you for providing this program. I have enjoyed using for a large 
portion of my mail for several years now.

   I downloaded and installed the fresh version, but now get an error 3 for 
both the new and classic Yahoo interface settings:

chris@ace:~/fetchyahoo/fetchyahoo-2.13.4$ /usr/bin/fetchyahoo 
--username=cwjenks --password=mypassword 
--spoolfile=/home/chris/mboxtoprocess-cwjenks --maxmessages=50 --nodelete 
--newonly
Logging in securely via SSL as cwjenks on Fri May 22 12:06:49 2009
Country code : us       FetchYahoo! Version: 2.13.4

Retry #1 (error 3).

The script then prints the offending page, which after being loaded in a 
browser gives this announcement:


Why am I being asked for my password?

     * To protect your account, you need to confirm your password 
periodically.

       Some Yahoo! services, such as Yahoo! Mail and Yahoo! Address Book, 
require you to periodically enter your password even though you are 
already signed in. We do this to protect your personal information.

       You can adjust the length of time before password prompting--up to 
two weeks--by visiting Account Info and clicking on the Edit link for 
Member Information. (more)

       For your security, we will always prompt you for your password when 
accessing sensitive personal information, like Account Info.
     * Only one account can be signed in at a time.
       If you're not "cwjenks," sign in with your own ID.

   Yours,

     Chris
