* Note: nothing really seems to work. Tunderbird synchronizes items from the Yahoo server and Yahoo is giving timeouts. However, to have a full backup of all messages we can copy remote folders to a local folder. It doesn't seem to have timeout problems in that case.

I want all my e-mail in local files.

In the folder pane, each folder needs to be selected to allow download of all contained messages. You may have to wait until all messages have downloaded for each folder.

At some point I would have an error: "Server imap.mail.yahoo.com has disconnected"
* Maybe there are rate limits at the other side
** related to more busy moments on the day
** keeps coming back after seen once
* Maybe there are some messages causing this 
** related to this happening with a certain folders

After retrieving all messages and the message being local. You may limit the number of messages once again.
