cant import yahoo from gmail

[bigdan]

My Yahoo mail forwards to my Gmail. Haven't had an issue in years.

I got an alert in my Gmail today that my Yahoo mail wasnt importing for the last 3 days. I dont know why.

I checked the error but its not familiar to me:
Error: Server is temporarily unavailable.
Server returned error "Error in RETR command: [SYS/TEMP] problem retrieving message."

I googled around and couldnt figure anything out. I set my password again (didnt change it, just entered it again) but that didnt fix it.

Can anyone advise?

Did you set your mail to forward from Yahoo (i.e. inside Yahoo's webmail page), or did you setup your gmail account to retrieve your yahoo mail (i.e. from gmail's "add another account")?

If it was the latter, try changing the POP mail server address you've entered. What's it currently set to? pop.mail.yahoo.com?
