If you want Windows Mail to connect to yahoo.com, you have to either
pay extra or install YPOPs:

http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/mai...op/pop-08.html

http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/mai...ndfrom-07.html

http://ypopsemail.com/

There are also Yahoo sites for other countries and for where Yahoo
is running email servers for specific internet providers; these often
have different requirements.
