Your server has unexpectedly terminated the connection. Possible causes for
this include server problems, network problems, or a long period of
inactivity. Account: 'pop.mail.yahoo.com ', Server: 'popmail.yahoo.com',
Protocol: POP3, Port: 110, Secure(SSL): No, Error Number: 0x800CCC0F

1. Unless its a typo, your Server: name is wrong (popmail.yahoo.com should
be pop.mail.yahoo.com)
2. POP service is not available for free US Yahoo accounts, you must have a
paid Yahoo account.
3. If you have an AntiVirus application, disable ALL email scanning.

I think that both the server name and the incoming port are wrong. Check
with Yahoo's instruction page.
