Gmail POP-ing cox.net worked, now with yahoo hosting it doesn't

I posted to another message that was marked "SOLVED".  Not  sure what it was marked solved as I see people are having issues. I use gmail and before this transition used POP to pull my cox.net email into my gmail.  My cox.net account has been transferred to Yahoo.  I logged into Yahoo's webmail using Cox.net and see current email there. 

The POP settings for Yahoo are not working.  here are the settings and error message.

 

This stuff is not rocket science.  This is most likely poor planning and no testing.

  1. I knew I should have gotten away from cox.net email a loooonnng time ago
