My Yahoo account uses the domain name of @pacbell.net but it’s still a Yahoo account. The iPhone forces a domain name of @yahoo.com! Is there a workaround for this? I’m sure that others (@sbcglobal.com, etc) are in the same boat!

I’m on Prodigy.net (bought by SBC and also hosted by Yahoo) and I spoke to AT&T dial-up, AT&T Wireless and Apple iPhone tech support today. The Apple rep I was escalated to was very impressive and appeared to have been part of the development or product groups — he understood exactly what I was talking about.
This Apple rep claims that Yahoo –> iPhone push really does only work with @yahoo.com email addresses and not with all those pacbell, prodigy, snet, sbcglobal, etc addresses in the SBC family.
There are two barriers to rolling this out further (a) acccording to Apple guy, Yahoo only placed the (IMAP / P-IMAP ?) code on the yahoo.com servers, not on those that operate the SBC email services, (b) the UI “problem” you spotted that the “@yahoo.com” is hardwired into the iPhone UI and would need modifying by Apple.
Given that we are paying SBC/AT&T $10-30 / month for dial or DSL service and AT&T Wireless is the iPhone carrier and Yahoo hosts all the SBC email services this really should work. I pointed out to the Apple guy that this is probably 3-5 million users on SBC email that would like push to iPhone. He understood the idea. Maybe with some pushing to Apple and AT&T dial/DSL and AT&T Wireless we could get this implemented over time.
In the meantime, the Apple guy suggested setting up a new @yahoo.com email address, point the iPhone to pick up that email and forward your existing prodigy / pacbell / sbcglobal email to that new Yahoo account. This will probably sort of work BUT when you reply to a forwarded email it will show with your new Yahoo email address potentially confusing your email correspondents
Hope this helps
