Sorry, it's a scam. It is impossible to win a lottery if you did not buy a ticket. There is no such thing as a lottery of email addresses.
Yahoo! doesn't run a lottery (and certainly wouldn't do it cooperatively with MSN!) -- see the link below for a lot more info on Yahoo Lottery scam emails...

Hello, You really should not take these hoaxers on, they are just hitching up your hopes of an easy life, for 'free' it isn't free, it will cost you money and drive you up the pole with fake hopes. It's not fair and it should be stamped out, please dear reader, just delete it and all others you get, it's really a matter that you have to be in it to win it. and another one that seems to find its way to your computer is the one that claims to be your bank asking you to confirm your account details so they can update all the details onto a new database they are building, what rot!! the Bank that you choose to use already have your details and they know exactly where you live. be homest, would you give your bank card and pin details to a stranger?? No I didn't think you would, and neither would I either. Many people have though, and all because they trusted the E.Mail they recieved from some one saying they are from their bank, so it is all to do with common sense, common sense = an unwritten book of simple rules for the guidance of wise me and the ignorance of fools.. Dear Sir, I do hope this helps you out, and that you don't suffer at the hands and devices of these thieves. Good luck Tony M

No sir, it's a common scam.
If you want to waste their time, reply with fake info to send them on a loop.

they want you to get a pre paid visa card put $250 on it and then they take your money so they are the winners if you fall for it
