Grab YahooPops. It's freeware and will allow you to retrieve your Yahoo 
mail via any POP mail capable mail client:

http://yahoopops.sourceforge.net/downloads.html

As for Hotmail, there are other such utilities. One method I've used in 
the past, is to download and install FoxMail (a *very* nice free mail 
client, BTW). But, rather than actually using FoxMail as a mail client, I 
run just the small executable Hotmail proxy file that's in the FoxMail 
directory (I forget the file name). In any case, it works just like 
YahooPops. If you decide to run both, be sure to customize the port 
option on both of the above apps so that they don't conflict. For 
example, set one on port 1110 and one on 2110. This works as a good free 
method for doing what you want. Whatever you do, avoid Web2Pop like the 
plague. It's shareware, written by an author that can't be bothered to 
even answer e-mail support questions from registered users.
