Setting up yahoo as my default email...

Hi

Do you use the paid Yahoo Mail service, or the free version? The free version doesn't let you use POP clients like Apple Mail, you can only use a web browser to access your mail account.

In that case, there's no way to click on an email address and have your Yahoo webmail page come up.

If you have the paid version (Yahoo Plus), you can set up Apple Mail to send and receive Yahoo email. Look here for instructions.

I'm taken to .mac

This doesn’t make sense. You appear to be calling “.mac” the Mail application included with Mac OS X, which is actually a standard POP & IMAP mail client that can be used to access any mail account that provides POP or IMAP access...

That said, the following is probably what you’re looking for:

You’re welcome.

What do you mean? Have you looked in Mail Help?
