Check your settings with these.

To set up Yahoo in Windows Mail, you need a Yahoo Plus account.

It's been some time now. I don't know much about Yahoo though. Maybe you
were grandfathered in for awhile if you already had an existing account?
Not sure.

Is your Yahoo account a free one, a paid one, or sponsored through
your ISP?

US-based free Yahoo accounts have webmail access only, no POP
access. Windows Mail handles POP mail but not Yahoo webmail.
Yahoo's solution is to pay them for premium "Mail Plus" service, see:
http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/mail/classic/mailplus/overview/
and use the special settings for that service:
http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/mail/classic/mailplus/pop/pop-14.html

You can also continue to use Yahoo's webmail: http://mail.yahoo.com
If you need more help, just ask.
