        Hi,
the option is available since 2003:

Right, that's what happened here, it's just a coincidence of the server
side change and the user system update.

I decided to disable support for all POP3 extensions by default, which
will affect only newly created accounts. The correct fix is to report
this to Yahoo! support centre and let them fix the server, thus if
anyone could do it, then it would be much better.
