Are you saying:

If I send an email from my Macbook using Yahoo mail, and an email from my iphone using Contacts, that each will use its own separate, different contact list?

No, if you send from your Macbook or your iPhone using Mail (your mail client) the entire contact book will be available, regardless of which account is sending. If however you send from the Yahoo.com website, only the Yahoo contacts will be available.

When I open "Mail", I get the message "Mail can't connect to the accouny "smtp.me.com:my acct"." When I enter the password, the message keeps reappearing.

You now have a different issue, please start another thread in the iCloud forum, these are unrelated problems.

Forget it, are you using iCloud Mail as well as Yahoo mail?
