Are you paying for your yahoo account? If so, there should be directions in your account under one of the menus. If it's a free account, yahoo doesn't offer this option.

The ability to access Yahoo! Mail via a POP3 email client (such as Outlook or Outlook Express) is only available to customers of our premium Yahoo! Mail services.

NOTE that I have not tried this, nor even have an idea how it works, but it says it can be done. YMMV, yada yada yada.
