If you only have the US free version of Yahoo Mail, it is limited
to web access. Windows Mail cannot download web mail.
Some say a third party utility program called YPOPs can do this:

I haven't tried it.

The following info is originally provided for Outlook Express users
but to all intents and purposes it'll do for Windows Mail in Vista.
Note. I'm not sure that Yahoo users from all geographical areas
benefit from POP mailing. USA for one may not.
1.. From the Tools menu, choose "Accounts."
2.. Select the "Mail" tab.
3.. Click the "Add" button.
4.. From the Add menu, click "Mail."
5.. In the text box labelled Display Name, type your name and click
"Next."
6.. In the Email Address box, type your BT Yahoo! Mail address (be sure to
include "@btinternet.com") and click "Next."
7.. Under "My incoming mail server is a." select "POP3."
8.. Type "mail.btinternet.com" in the Incoming Mail (POP3, IMAP, or HTTP)
Server box.
9.. Type "mail.btinternet.com" in the Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server box.
10.. Click "Next."
11.. In the Account Name box, type your BT Yahoo! Mail ID (your email
address without the "@btinternet.com").
12.. In the Password box, type your BT Yahoo! Mail password.
13.. If you want Outlook Express to remember your password, check the
"Remember password" box.
14.. Do not check the boxes labelled "Log on using Secure."
15.. Click "Next."
16.. Click "Finish."
17.. Select 'pop.mail.yahoo.com' under 'Account,' and click 'Properties.'
18.. Click the "Servers" tab.
19.. Under "Outgoing Mail Server" check the box next to "My server
requires authentication"
20.. Click the 'Advanced' tab.
21.. Under "Outgoing mail Server (SMTP)", ensure the box next to "This
server requires a secure connection (SSL)" is not checked.
22.. Under "Incoming mail (POP3)", ensure the box next to "This server
requires a secure connection (SSL)" is not checked.
