Yahoo account will not connect
Closed
I try to add my yahoo account in outlook. I input the appropriate settings
imap.mail.yahoo.com port 993 encryption method SSL/TLS
smpt.mail.yahoo.com port 465 encryption method SSL/TLS (I also tried AUTO)
I then am asked for my password, and I input my yahoo account password, and I get a return message that says Something Went Wrong. Outlook cannot connect to the yahoo server.
I know the password I am using is correct because I tested that logging onto yahoo through an internet connection.
What else can be done?

I tried changing to pop.mail.yahoo.com with the port 995 and the other settings that you suggested. It still does not connect.
I now have reset the mail application and cannot add the account.
Yahoo sees that I have agreed to allow the 3rd party application access to mail. I also have checked all the privacy settings and that is not the issue.
Any other suggestions?
