How to configure Kmail for Yahoo protocol on a Lan network

Hi PPL !!
Can some body help me to configure Kmail on a LAN network for Yahoo protocol :
I have already tried to done that using POP for recieving mails and SMTP for sending mails but as soon as i start up the error comes Server could not log on Check the user name or passwd
This is the message displayed :
Could not login to pop.mail.yahoo.com. The password may be wrong.
The server said: "Error logging in. Please visit http://mail.yahoo.com"

I don't think Yahoo allows pop access to mail...however there was a utility called yahoo pops that fooled the system into thinking it was a web logon. I never was able to get it working, but check this new app/script
YoSucker which is supposed to do the same thing:
