To get emails from a mail server you usually need to use the IMAP or POP protocols. There are libraries out there that can do this for you, or you can use the TcpStream to create your own. Be warned, though, the latter is a lot of work.

You also want to check that yahoo supports IMAP or POP access, otherwise you're going to need to implement another method. Oh, and I don't think Hotmail supports that sort of access unless you pay for it (though it's been a while since I stopped using hotmail).
