A 486 versus a 68000 is no contest, I'm afraid. While arguably superior to an 8086, and still holding its own very well against a 286, you really can't expect the Classic to do what the 486 can. There is just too much of a generation gap. Probably the only way to get Yahoo mail on your Classic is to use Eudora with the Yahoo POP 3 option. That should work easily. You will not need an Internet browser at all, just an early email client. Otherwise, try MacWeb (not MacWWW) with System 7.1, but I have no idea if that will work with Yahoo.
