No because it's a web-based mail. If you PAY for Yahoo, then you can use any
email client (such as Windows Mail, Outlook, Thunderbird etc) which of
course you CAN set as default email client..

Asking a question?
Please tell us the version of the application you are asking about,
your OS, Service Pack level
and the FULL contents of any error message(s)

There is a work around using a program called Ypops.
However Yahoo changes its outgoing servers such that you will be able to
download free Yahoo mail but not send using Yahoo.
The download also may erase your Email from the Yahoo server.
Hence this does not work for most people because Yahoo wants you to pay for
the privilege of using anything other than the Yahoo web site to read your
mail.
