I use Kmail and Yahoo all the time, it works a treat once you've set it up.
Host: smtp.mail.yahoo.co.uk
Port: 587
You will require authentication. Login is just the first part of your e-mail.
and your password is the normal Yahoo password.
eg. For Tim H,
Login: xendistar
For security, no encryption and plain authentication work fine, though there
may be more secure settings.
Hope this helps,
Tim B.
