Last I played around with this, there was a program called "YahoooPops" that did this for you. It worked pretty decent, and just required a small app to sit in your system tray.

Haven't used it in a while tho, so not sure of the development of it at this point. (Open Source.)

Hmmm. The standard free Yahoo mail accounts don't offer POP3 access, as far as I know. I believe the only way to get this to work is to subscribe to the enhanced Yahoo mail service. I haven't tried the YahooPops utility, though. Maybe I should have, before I subscribed.
