Problems With Yahoo Mail

The POP is unable to access most of the Yahoo emails; this just started a few hours ago. I can open the Yahoo screennames and emails directly, but POP skips over them with the "Timed Out" error. (All are IMAP SSL, Port 993, server imap.mail.yahoo.com.) Any guess what's going on, and is this a temporary thing? Thanks.

It's working now -- that was just very strange, that I could access the screennames directly but POP was locked out. Other that Yahoo being a bunch of yahoos, any guess why this would happen?

The issue was caused by Yahoo IMAP server problems, these issues will arise from time to time but are eventually resolved by Yahoo (I was getting the errors as well in my Yahoo accounts).
