I think this is more to do with Yahoo mail server than KMail. Seems like Yahoo authenticates when sending mails too. I have configured my Yahoo account in KMail and found a way to send mails using Yahoo: In the 'Miscellaneous' section of the KMail configuration dialog, check the 'Send Mail in outbox folder on check' checkbox. Thus when you check your Yahoo mail, immediately after checking for mails, KMail sends mails in outbox folder, just in time before the Yahoo server timeout for 'remembering' your login expires. Hope this helps. Note that you need to first queue your out-bound mails in your outbox. To do this, click the 'Queue' toolbar button and in the Properties tab for Sending mails in the Network section of KMail configuration dialog, select the 'Send later' option for the "Default send method".
