To access Yahoo mails in Outlook Express or any other mail client, You must first configure POP3 access in Yahoo.

To do this, Go to Yahoo Mail Options and you will find POP3 access and forwarding option there..

Go into this, and select the Web & POP Access option.

Now, You need to configure Outlook express. The settings are as follows. ( You can find these in yahoo site also)

Incoming Mail Server (POP3): pop.mail.yahoo.co.in
Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP): smtp.mail.yahoo.co.in ( Use Port 587 if 25 is blocked by ur ISP)
Account Name/Username:
Yahoo ID (eg: abcdefg)
Email address: Yahoo e-mail Address (eg: abcdefg@yahoo.com/co.in)
Password: Your Yahoo! Mail password

Note: Currently Yahoo POP3 accessing is not available for all accounts. I am sure that it is working for co.in

Yahoo has stopped POP3 access in .com pretty long back! I think it still works for .in or .co.in

For .com addresses try using YahooPOP/ypops. Last time I tried it, there were some issues with attachments. But it was long time back. It may have improved.
