Try enabling/disabling ssl and changing ports (I'm using server port 993) Yahoo Mail is finicky.

I am not sure if this has anything to do with your troubles, but I have an email from Yahoo Mail that I received on June 2, which is about a month ago, just one day short of "four weeks". Read below, while keeping in mind the note mentioned twice "in about a month," and "in about thirty days":
