I just use the normal Yahoo mail account.I shifted to beta version around 4 months back.But my account is more than 3 years old so they must have themselves transferred to Yahoo Mail Plus and I am using the general .com one.

Here's how to "POP" mail from Yahoo! Mail your Outlook Express:
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 labeled Display Name, type your name and click "Next."
6. In the Email Address box, type your Yahoo! Mail address (be sure to include "@yahoo.com") and click "Next."
7. Under "My incoming mail server is a…" select "POP3."
8. Type "127.0.0.1" in the Incoming Mail (POP3, IMAP, or HTTP) Server box.
9. Type "127.0.0.1" in the Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server box.
10. Click "Next."
11. In the Account Name box, type your Yahoo! Mail ID (your email address without the "@yahoo.com").
12. In the Password box, type your Yahoo! Mail password.
13. If you want Outlook Express to remember your password, check the "Remember password" box.
14. Do not check the boxes labeled "Log on using Secure…"
15. Click "Next."
16. Click "Finish."
17. Select '127.0.0.1' 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)”, check the box next to “This server requires a secure connection (SSL). Enter port number “465” in the “Outgoing mail (SMTP)” field.
22. Under “Incoming mail (POP3)”, check the box next to “This server requires a secure connection (SSL)". The port number in the “Incoming mail (POP3)" field should automatically change from 110 to 995. If it doesn’t, make sure the port number is set to 995.

You have to change the settings in Outlook
Just go to tools than to accounts and then select your yahoo account or any other and click on properties.
A new dialog box will appear in which click on the advanced options.
In advance option disable "leave a copy of message on server" and you are done.
