Why won't Outlook 2007 recognise my Yahoo email username and password? I
wanted to set up 2007 to view the Yahoo account and I could also import my
old emails from my old email address at work from which I have retired.

How do your settings compare with those listed here:

POP Yahoo! Mail Plus with Microsoft Outlook 2002 (XP) and 2003

Note that only PAID Yahoo mail acccounts can be accessed with Outlook,
Windows Mail, Outlook Express, Eudora, and the like; the free accounts
require a web browser.
