Yahoo Zimbra Desktop not connecting

[ssc351]

Hi Everyone,

I am trying to use Zimbra for my mail but I can't get it to connect...It looks like everything got installed ok, but when I try to set-up my account on the initial go around I get this error:

"zimbra.imap.mail.yahoo.com:993" host not found. Please check hostname and network connectivity.

I have my firewall turned off...I am running Jaunty 64bit

Any help?

Hi, I have the same thing. It can't find the server. Can you connect to the local backend using Firefox?

at the normal Zimbra setup screen where you enter the account details, right click on the edit link by the port setting for Zimbra and copy the link, then paste it into the location bar on Firefox. Does it work there?
