Try the following configuration.

To use SSL:

  (setq mew-smtp-port "smtp") ;; default value
  (setq mew-smtp-ssl-port 465) ;; default value

To use TLS:

  (setq mew-smtp-port "submission")
  (setq mew-smtp-ssl-port "submission")

Though I don't have a yahoo.com account, the configuration works
for Gmail.
