Exporting Yahoo Mail to PST using IMAP settings is possible by configuring your Yahoo account with an email client that supports IMAP, such as Microsoft Outlook. IMAP allows Outlook to sync Yahoo Mail folders locally, after which the emails can be exported into a PST file for backup or migration purposes. This method is useful for small mailboxes but can be time-consuming and requires proper configuration.
