1) Whatever you like - probably

Stjepan

2) The part of your e-mail address before the @ - probably

b.stjepan

3) The part of your e-mail address after the @ - probably

yahoo.de

4) smtp.mail.yahoo.de/user=XXXXXXX

where "XXXXXXX" is whatever user-name you usually use to log in and
send outgoing mail

5) pop.mail.yahoo.de/pop3/user=XXXXXXX

followed by

inbox

where "XXXXXXX" is whatever user-name you usually use to log in and
receive incoming mail.
