Hello, please be more patient when waiting for answer. I had suse 9.0 in the past, and as far as I remember, it had postfix configured to send mails. You said "&" - does that mean in the background in terms of Unix ? Can you please shed some more light on what exactly you are trying to achieve, whether you are the administrator of this box (got root ?), are you sure that the selected ports for sending out (e.g. 25 || 587) are open at your network, etc. In the end, if the whole setup is done correctly, you should not have problems to send mail to Yahoo or any other destination.
