Default JI6 update blocks Yahoo Mail through Wifi

I had the stock Vibrant and just upgraded to JI6. Before, I had no problems accessing my paid yahoo mail with the following settings:

incoming: plus.pop.mail.yahoo.com / 110
outgoing: plus.smtp.mail.yahoo.com / 587

After the upgrade, I can read my email using GPRS, but if Wifi is turned on I get an error:

Free Yahoo! Mail accounts cannot be connected through Wi-Fi.
Please disable Wi-Fi and try again.

WTF???

I use the Yahoo Mail program and have no problem on Wifi. Not sure why you're having issues. Maybe its the wifi that you're using.
