I visited the site but yahoo is asking for subscriptions. Is there any way to obtain this service free of charge.?

No. To use pop3-based yahoo, you've got to pay.

Options:

1. Do it.

2. Don't do it.
2a. Stay with yahoo mail. Only use standard yahoo interface. Don't use Outlook or Outlook Express.
2b. Find an other email provider that offers free pop3-access (your ISP?).

Your choice.
