If you are using Yahoo free mail account , yahoo will not allow "popping" your mail to Outlook or anywhere else. You can pop it into yahoo but not out! To pop your mail out of yahoo to Outlook, or anywhere else, you'll have to purchase yahoo's premium mail service. Its about $20.00 a year.

Pay for Yahoo Mail Plus (about $5/month I think).

First of all, Yahoo! no longer provides Yahoo! Mail Plus. See below.
"Yahoo to terminate "Yahoo Plus" Web package" -- written by Reuter (http://today.reuters.com/news/articlebusiness.aspx?type=media&storyID=nN28390226&from=business)
----------------------------
The problem using Outlook Express to download e-mail messages from Yahoo! Mail is that the service does not provide POP3 access. To do so, you will need to use a free third party software called "YPOP's." What is YPOP's? Below is the developer's description of the program.
YPOPs! is an application that provides POP3 access to Yahoo! Mail. It is available oÂn the Windows, Linux, Solaris and Mac platforms.
Yahoo! Mail disabled free access to its POP3 service oÂn 24th April, 2002. This application emulates a POP3 server and enables popular email clients like Outlook, Netscape, Eudora, Mozilla, etc., to download email from Yahoo! accounts. We do not go against the license agreements of Yahoo! Mail. This application is completely legitimate and well within the realms of legal software.
How do we do it you ask? Well, this application is more like a gateway. It provides a POP3 server interface at oÂne end to talk to email clients and an HTTP client (browser) interface at the other which allows it to talk to Yahoo!
------------------------------------------------------
Alright, now you know what YPOPs is then the question is how to use? Download the program from: http://sourceforge.net/projects/yahoopops/
After downloading and installing YPOPs, go to this webpage for instructions on how to set it up and use it:
