US-based free Yahoo accounts have webmail access only, no POP
access. Windows Mail handles POP mail but not Yahoo webmail.
Yahoo's solution is to pay them for premium "Mail Plus" service:
http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/mail/original/mailplus/overview/index.html
and use the special settings for that service:

Open the Default Programs applet, which you can access either from
the Start menu or via the Control Panel, then click the first item:
"Set your default programs."
After a few seconds, a list of programs comes up. Click on "Internet
Explorer". If it doesn't respond with "This program has all its =
defaults"
then fix it by clicking on the option indicated by the first green =

Incidentally, that "three hours earlier" may be an artifact of your time =
zone setting
being wrong. You have it set for Pacific time, although you are located =
in the
Eastern time zone (Boston). Please correct your PC's time zone.
