Not exactly; in my yahoo email, in order for it to accept an address from another site to receive emails from, the settings there are required to put in a "POP server". This is what i don't get of what to put in that required field?

Yes. That would be about the connection details like the server domain to retrieve stored messages from a mail server via the POP3 protocol.
