you are going to get alot people telling you cant do this however this is not accurate
you need to download a program called ypops from yahoo
then install it-download here-http://www.ypopsemail.com/modules.php?op=modload&name=Downloads&file=index
if you are using outlook for your email when you get to the part that needs the pop and smtp info type in local host for both sections
next click more settings-then outgoing server tab-put a check in the box my outgoing server requires authentication-check box that says use same settings as my incomming mail server-click ok-click next-click finish
once you are all done with the configurations in outlook or whatever program you are using start the ypops application
then do a send and receive and thats it youve got mail
note:if you use your email program all the time you can set ypops to start when windows does if you dont then set it so you start it manually.
good luck

POP access to Yahoo is not available using the free Yahoo e-mail. It is if you switch to the Yahoo Plus paid e-mail. There are a couple of free programs that might give access to the free Yahoo e-mail, but my experience with them is they are about 50/50 to work, and when they do slow your PC when they run in the background. Best to avoid them.

You have to get a Yahoo! PLUS account. It seems like it isn't free.
