Default set up email outlook for yahoo and am quizzed for logon user

I can't figure out to set up email. I put in pop3 and smtp then get back
type in user and password but user and password have already been typed in
automatically, i accept and it repeats type in user name and password. It is
driving me crazy.
Thanks
Gary

If this is a free yahoo account then you can't use it in any mail client.
Two options - either upgrade to a paid account, or have a look he
