1. click mail setting
2. click add account
3 click very bottom button (other)
4. pick pop
5. type in info as usual
the thing that I'm trying to figure out is how to set this up as push because sbcglobal mail is yahoo mail as you know and correct me if im wrong but yahoo! mail is the only supported push right? which means you would have to select yahoo at step 3 but you can't enter your email there in user name?

Both not quite right. You set up the sbcglobal account the same way to set up a new yahoo account. Setttings->Mail->Add Account->Y! Mail.
On the email field, just type your full address, like RHJS@sbcglobal.net. The "@yahoo.com" will be pushed to the right and eventually disappears when you save it.
That is how I got push email and all that with the sbcglobal account. And I did not discover this. Someone else on this forum posted this, just can't find the post right now.
