  WordPress.com does not accept incoming domain transfers. But you can map your domain to your WordPress.com blog using domain mapping. You can find more about domain mapping in this support guide: https://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/map-existing-domain/

  Please be aware that there are two costs involved for domain mapping: [1] the cost of the domain you pay to Yahoo. [2] cost of domain mapping upgrade you pay to WordPress.com.

  Once you map the domain, you can add email using the instructions in this support document: https://en.support.wordpress.com/add-email/

  Make sure there is not already an email service configured on your domain at Yahoo.
