Answer

Okay ...Yahoo! does not provide POP3 or SMTP support for free accounts, i.e. you cannot receive/send your emails from Yahoo! in any email client, like the one you are trying to use. However, in case you need to access and send emails using a web browser, just login to your account using the following link:
http://www.yahoomail.com

If you want to use an email program, i.e. Outlook, Thunderbird, etc., with POP3 and SMTP access, you can upgrade to Yahoo! Mail Plus, which will let you access your emails using the email program. Thereafter, you may check out the server settings for the same using the following link:

In order to check out and upgrade to Yahoo! Mail Plus, please use the following link:
