The JavaMail FAQ has instructions for connecting to Yahoo mail, as well as debugging tips for when it doesn't work.

probably SMTPClient uses a SMTP protocol, but yahoo uses more secure one like ASMTP. can you post your SMTPClient class here?

Please provide the root cause or Stack trace of the Exception. It may be because you haven't configured Authenticator

The reason is that it cannot connect to the Yahoo Mail Server. I'm unsure of Yahoo's mail port so ensure that the port is correct. Can you post more details? I.e. the nested exception....
