i was wondering how to use yahoo on windows mail.....if you can please
message me back.
 
No, you can't use Windows Mail for that unless you have a premium POP
Yahoo account. The free US Yahoo accounts have web mail access only,
and Windows Mail doesn't do web mail, only POP/IMAP.

I have yahoo forwarding my mail to my windows account...
mail account
Servers incoming.....pop.mail.yahoo.com
Servers outgoing.....smtp.mail.yahoo.com
When you click finish open the account again and check the box "This server
requires authentication"

Don't assume that your experience is universally applicable.
Unlike you, Justin is in the US, which does not get POP or forwarding
with free Yahoo accounts.
