If you have POP access to Yahoo then you can just use those details to set up your account in Thunderbird.

Although I'm not too sure if Yahoo do pop access for free.

Yahoo.com pop3 access isn't free and there is a charge for it.

AFAIK yahoo.ie has free pop3 access

as far as i can remember, it souuld be pop.mail.yahoo.ie and the smtp server should be smtp.mail.yahoo.ie for the .ie site. The same is true of the .co.uk site, but i've never tried the .com
