Ha, there are ways, just depends on how things are set up. You can use gmail via pop, as it uses secure ports, rather then the standard ones. I think yahoo just uses the standard pop3/smtp ports which might be blocked. You could also set up yahoo to forward your email to your work address.

1: Sign up for gmail.
2: Enable Pop3 clients in the gmail web client
3: Configure a pop3 mail client on your workstation to use the s/pop3 and s/smtp ports
4: Send and recieve mail via gmail while at work.

This is the stuff you need. Depends on how smart the firewall is.
