Sorry for the delay, I thought I had answered this already but I do not see=
 any answers.

The problem is that you are trying to connect to yahoo over SSL / TLS, whic=
h Blat does not support.  I have the same problem here at home for connecti=
ng to AT&T (Yahoo) from my cable provider.  The easy solution that has work=
ed for me for many years is to use STUNNEL to provide the SSL / TLS encrypt=
ion required by Yahoo.  STUNNEL is a simple program that sits between Blat =
and the SMTP server, and provides the secure sockets layer (SSL) connection=
..  The SSL / TLS connection is like having a tunnel bored through a mountai=
n, bypassing any toll gates on the highway.  In our case, stunnel provides =
that tunneling connection.  There are many examples of stunnel configuratio=
n files that I and others have provided to this list over the years.

Stunnel is free to download and use, and can be retrieved from https://www.=
stunnel.org/downloads.html.  This program is public domain software, regula=
rly maintained by a group of security minded folks.  Although I could incor=
porate these libraries into Blat builds, I would then have to stay on top o=
f any changes to those libraries and make much more frequent releases of Bl=
at as the libraries themselves get updated.
