Gotcha. I just tested fetchyahoo on my computer with my (unused) yahoo
address. It worked with evo.

I have an account setup like this:

Server Type: Standard Unix mbox spool or directory
Path: /var/mail/burner

When I run fetchyahoo, the messages from that account are then found in
my evolution inbox for that account.
