    I'm trying to set up a yahoo mail account, but for some reason it wont accept my postcode on the personal details screen. i like in Dublin 5, but when I enter 5 as a postcode it tells me it "doesnt exist in this country". Is there a way around this?

    Did you select Ireland as the country?

    Try submitting it without a postcode.

    Selected Ireland, and then 5. Tried 0005 (like a zip code) and didnt accept that either. So I left it blank and it said I must enter a postcode. Said I was from the UK and entered my girlfriends post code (she's in Belfast) and it worked. But I dont want that:D. Want a proper Irish address.

    If you go to mail.yahoo.ie and register from there it wont ask you for a postcode. You will get an address@yahoo.ie
