For yahoo mail you need upgrade to yahoo mail plus to get
the full pop3 service for access to outlook,incredimail,
thunderbird and others. For more info see the link below.

And use the yahoo mail servers address (for yahoo.com address)
* Incoming Mail Server (POP3): plus.pop.mail.yahoo.com
Use SSL, port: 995
* Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP): plus.smtp.mail.yahoo.com
Use SSL, port: 465, use authentication
And for yahoo mail servers address (for yahoo.co.uk address)
* Incoming mail server (POP3): pop.mail.yahoo.co.uk
* Outgoing mail server (SMTP): smpt.mail.yahoo.co.uk
Note: Some UK users can get free pop3 it will depend on if your internet service provider has an arrangement with yahoo, you need to check with your isp first.
