Just a thought - do you have to TELL Yahoo that you want to access via
POP? In ordinary Yahoo accounts you have to do that. In Yahoo webmail it's
in Settings-POP and Forwarding...

There are two mutually exclusive settings for Yahoo Mail. The first is to
forward all mail to another address and the second is to allow POP and web
access at Yahoo. You choose one or the other. I believe the default choice
is to allow POP and web access so I don't believe you need to set it up.
You might consider visiting the POP Access and Forwarding options page to
exclude from download the mail SpamGuard places in the mailbox's Spam
folder.
