Downloading web-based e-mail folders into Windows Mail

I am trying to download all my e-mail folders from my web-based Yahoo account
into Windows Mail. The messages in the Inbox downloaded fine, but how do I
download all the other e-mail messages that I have stored in folders?

the new windows mail will not allow you to download from web based e-mail
accounts, Hotmail, MSN Hotmail, Yahoo, ect. If you have found a way, let me
know.

Have you asked Yahoo support?

You'd have to move the content of the other folders to your Yahoo inbox.

Thank you all for your input. I contacted Yahoo and they confirmed what Gary
said - that I would have to move any e-mails stored in folders back to the
Inbox in order to download it to Windows Mail.

Gary, is there any advantage to using Vista's WM when I use Mozilla-MSN
homepage to Windows live Hotmail??

Not sure which Gary you are addressing, but I have no experience
with Live Hotmail, so I can't compare it with WLM.
The best way to find out about WLM is to try it yourself.
