When i down load my mail it goes through every category instead of just
downloading my inbox ... How can i change to just downloading inbox???
 
Please specify what type of account. It sounds like IMAP, so try this:
Tools, Accounts, select that account, Properties, click the IMAP tab.
Uncheck the first box. Click OK.
 
We don't officially support Outlook in this newsgroup, which is dedicated
to support for the Windows Mail program.

US-based free Yahoo accounts have webmail access only, no POP access.
Neither Outlook nor Windows Mail is able to handle Yahoo webmail.
There are three possible solutions:

1. How did you access Yahoo mail before? If you are happy with
webmail via your browser, you can continue to use that.

2. Pay Yahoo to get their 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:
http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/mail/original/mailplus/pop/pop-14.html

3. Another option is called YPOPs. It is free, but requires some technical
knowledge to implement: http://ypopsemail.com/
 
AFAIK, the free Yahoo! webmail accounts can only be accessed via a browser.

You'll have to pay for the Premium account in order to access the POP3
server.
