OK.. i consider myself pretty tech savvy. But i cannot get my Yahoo mail set up on this phone. I get an error that says "Authentication failed. Please verify your username/password" i know i am typing it in right. If i set it up manually, using the POP settings, i guess technically it works but ALL of my messages are displayed, including my spam folder. And i can't break it down by folder. Anyone have any luck with this? I've googled the crap out of this problem and can't seem to find any answer. Thanks in advance for the help.

You have a gmail account correct? Since that is required for Android, set up your gmail account to pull in your Yahoo Email. Very simple thing to do inside your Gmail settings.
