Do you have a (paid-for) account with POP access? If so, configuring Yahoo!'s 
POP service should be straightforward.

If you only have a regular web-based mail account, you can use something like 
FetchYahoo (http://fetchyahoo.twizzler.org/ - RPMs available from 
http://www.city-fan.org/ftp/contrib/mail/) to grab the mail and either deliver 
it to a local mail spool or forward it to a different email address, from 
where you'd be able to read the mail using Evolution.
