More than likely the problem is because yahoo requires some sort of authentication in order to use thier SMTP service. I doubt just anyone can send their mail through Yahoo's SMTP Server. So it is probably failing because it is not authenticating correctly.
There is an Authenticator class that you could use to resolve this problem. However, you will never be able to retrieve your mail from Yahoo because JavaMail does not support web based E-mail as of yet.
