IIRC, you have to have Yahoo Messenger installed, before you can make Yahoo
webmail the default mail handler. I was trying to get this done on my dad's
Thinkpad, and I found that there used to be a tool to do this, but Yahoo
have stopped giving that away, to encourage people to install their chat
client.
