If that doesn't help, you may need to either pay extra or install YPOPs.

Re: setting up windows vista mail with a yahoo email address

I had this same problem trying to configure my girlfriends mail
account. I then check her mail settings in Yahoo! and after going
into her Yahoo! Mail Account, I clicked on "Options", then selected
"Mail Options". This loaded a new screen with some new options, I
then selected "POP3 and Forwarding" and then clicked on the "Set up or
edit POP & Forwarding" hyperlink. On the POP Access and Forwarding
page I selected the radio button next to "Web & POP Access" and
clicked on the Save push button to update the account settings.

Windows Mail then loaded on Vista with no further errors.

I am not sure if your problem was similar to this.

yahoo.com accounts require you to either pay extra or install YPOPs
to connect using Windows Mail. Your message looks like she was
already paying enough for this.

http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/mai...op/pop-35.html

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

http://ypopsemail.com/

I don't believe this also applies to all Yahoo accounts for countries other
than the US.
