First of all, you check yahoo mail through the Yahoo server, NOT the
"Microsoft" server.
Secondly, unless you have either a paid-for yahoo.com account, or a yahoo.uk
and (I think) a yahoo.fr email address, you can't without the assistance of
a third party application called Ypops...
 
YPOPS has been mentioned here frequently, but I tend to shy away
from recommending it because
a) it takes a certain amount of tech savvy to set up, and
b) it is contrary to Yahoo's TOS, so they can terminate your account
if they find out you are using it.

I also found this source. It tells you how to use Yahoo on WLM:

'How to Access Free Yahoo! Mail with Windows Live Mail - About Email'
(http://email.about.com/od/livemaildesktoptips/qt/et_free_yahoo.htm)

I hope this helps.
