In setting up microsoft outlook it asks for both the incoming and outgoing mail servers. What are the names for the two servers?

Incoming: pop.mail.yahoo.com
Outgoing: smtp.mail.yahoo.com
But you have to be signed up for a paying email account. Free yahoo mail will not work with Outlook

Yahoo mail does not work with Outlook. You need to either pay for Yahoo premium service or download a 3rd party tool called Ypops to fool yahoo into getting yahoo mail into outlook.

I think it's POP3 (I hope that's right lol)
I recently found out that you have to have a paid Yahoo! account before you can use it with outlook anyway.

yahoo mail is a web based mail account and outlook is a POP (post office protocol) they are 2 different protocols and not intermixable.

....goto your ISP's homepage and look for: SMTP......
soft mail transfer protocols.
It is several pages to down load then print them. (so you won't forget), then bring up MsOutlook and enter the info in the required fields. It ...IS...easy. I did it and I am not that technically inclined.
good luck. I got mine from "earthlink".
