This is caused by Yahoo changing part of the message identifiers
regularly which causes Thunderbird to think all the messages are new
and download them again.

In FreePops the developer made a change to overcome this change by
Yahoo as the default option.  In the Webmail Yahoo extension the
override of the Yahoo change has to be selected by the user and is
called the "ShortID" option in the "Advanced" tab for the account.

Please be aware that selecting the "ShortID" option will casue all of
the messages to be downloaded once again but after that you should be
free of the regular re-download problem.
