If you have a US based, free, Yahoo account, it won't work with Windows Mail
or any other POP client.

You have to either pay Yahoo for the premium service (which will maintain
your current email address), use another non-US Yahoo account (which will
require changing the address), or create a new account with a provider that
does support POP, such as gmail. Again, the address will change.

If you do have a paid Yahoo account, they do have directions.
