Can't read email from AT&T Yahool POP server with Emacs 24.2 on Windows XP laptop

Can't read email from AT&T Yahool POP server with Emacs 24.2 on Windows XP laptop

I am unsuccessful at getting email from a Yahoo POP enabled server (inbound.att.net), using either VM or Gnus, with a Windows binary version of Emacs 24.2 running on a laptop whose system is Window XP Home. Since this Emacs has no gnutls compiled into it, I am using gnutls-cli from Cygwin.
I am wondering if anyone has been successful under equivalent circumstances?
I am able to read Gmail via POP with this set up.
Thunderbird on my machine can read email from inbound.att.net:995, via POP (an IMAP server for AT&T Yahoo email is not available).
