It depends on what kind of Yahoo Mail you have, since some versions do not support POP E-mail access. If you do have POP functionality, you can find instructions for setting up an Tb account here:

If you have not done something like this before, always be sure to doublecheck each entry in the setup wizard, since the POP process is unforgiving about typos.
