I am on my 3rd droid X. Love the phone but keep having problems. In the past I set up my yahoo email accounts with no problem. This time I set them up and I can recieve emails but cant send them. I have to manually check to recieve. I don't have sync over wifi on and I have fetch set up for every hour.
Is there a trick that I need to set up these yahoo email accounts?

This is a common problem and Moto is supposedly going to release a fix.

Do you have a link to this or is it rumor?
From what I've been reading Yahoo IMAP is problematic and not an easy solution. Try forwarding Yahoo to Gmail, like everyones been suggesting, first in the setting and see how well it does. I don't know if Yahoo will allow you to send from the Yahoo account through the Gmail account for those multiple accounts.
The setting for Imap are at Setting up IMAP on your mobile device | The New Mobile Yahoo! Mail Experience Help
And then there are settings in the Yahoo account itself which must be switched to IMAP.

So you are saying I can send email from gmail but make it look like it came from one of my yahoo address. With having so many different yahoo emails I need to be able to switch between them

Not sure if you meant sending an email from gmail that was forwarded from Yahoo. I send all my Yahoo emails through gmail. In fact, I have it set up to show my Yahoo address instead of my gmail address.

I have only one yahoo address and one gmail address. I set up within my gmail account under settings to show any mail that is sent by me to show it was sent from my yahoo address. Like I said before, I get my emails withing seconds and works fabulous this way.
Now since you have multiple yahoo addresses and would forward them all to your gmail account you can only set up only one of your yahoo addresses to show when sending an email. What I think you would need to do is set a gmail account up for each yahoo address so when you send or respond to an email from a particular yahoo account it will show that pacific yahoo address.
