    Yahoo Incoming Mail Server (POP3) - pop.mail.yahoo.com (port 110)
    Yahoo Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP) - smtp.mail.yahoo.com (port 25)

    for more details, log into your yahoo account online, and go to settings or advanced. I have sbcglobal (through yahoo) and they have instructions on how to setup OE to receive emails.
