    which is a good program so that I don't have to go to each address and check one by one? any recommendations?

    Do you want to do a mass mailing?

    No,
    I just have two old Yahoo email accounts that are now picking up a lot of spam and want to use another address now.
    But instead of checking those two old one's all the time.
    Should i use a Gmail account for that?

    If you are only going to use Yahoo and possibly Gmail you might want to look at using My Yahoo that's all I use.
    When you open a My Yahoo account click on Content and in the search box type My Inbox then click on + Add on the My Inbox app

    The Yahoo Help article How to add email accounts to the My Mail and My Inbox apps explains how to add a second Yahoo email account and a Gmail account if you have one.

    You can also get quick and simple weather and news etc, I find it handy

    By the way, Yahoo email free version will not allow you to transfer (POP) your email to another email service

    I only have one Yahoo email account so I've never tried it but from reading various Yahoo Help pages I believe the Free version of Yahoo Mail won't send (copy) email from one Yahoo account to another but the email titles of both Yahoo email accounts can be seen in the My Inbox app on the My Yahoo website.
    If you want to read an email just click on it and you will be taken directly to that email at that Yahoo email account.
    I was under the impression you just wanted to be able to have a quick check of the Yahoo email accounts and probably not need to read any because you were going to establish a new email account, this will allow you to do that.

    You can also follow the instructions on the Yahoo Help page I linked to so that your Gmail email titles can be read in the My Inbox app.
    I know for sure this works.

    If you want to test it, send a test email from one Yahoo account to the other then reply to it and see if both turn up in the My Inbox app.
    You might have to refresh the My Inbox app or the My Yahoo page

    Are you trying to enable email forwarding? It sounds like it, but I could be wrong. If that is the case, in the Yahoo account you want to forward to the other, and go to "Options" (in the top left) > "Mail options" > "POP & Forwarding" > Click on "Forward to another email address" and enter the email address of the account you want to send the email to.
