Just a suggestion - I have a very computer illiterate friend who has
trouble connecting to Yahoo mail with Internet Explorer. I'm trying to
persuade her to get a new computer and use Linux on it.

The easiest way I found for her to connect was to configure Evolution on
my laptop to connect to her Yahoo account using IMAP. All she needed to
do then was switch on the computer, log in and start up Evolution which
connects automatically. She was unable to argue that that is in any way
difficult.
