Windows 10: Problem Accessing Yahoo Mail

I just bought a new desktop which included Windows 11 Home. I can't access my yahoo email thru windows 11 or Microsoft Outlook. I can't go direct to yahoo and access my mail.[Original Title: Mail]

Cannot access Yahoo mail unless I delete history IE 11


Hello!

I receive many e-mails in my Yahoo account every day since I am subscribed to many threads in this forum. Recently I noticed that I cannot access Yahoo mail. In Yahoo support they suggest deleting the browsing history. I did it and was able to access my e-mails again only to have the same problem next day. Anyone having the same problem? Is there any setting in Internet Explorer or Yahoo that would fix the problem without having to delete browsing history every day? Since I mostly use IE I am not sure if this problem appears in Microsoft Edge, Firefox or Google Chrome, but I would prefer keep using IE.

Thank you for any suggestions.

 

Cannot access yahoo mail via Outlook 2010

Windows 10 Pro 1909, Outlook 2010, Yahoo full featured mail, no account key or 2-step verification enabled

I have several yahoo mail (full featured) accounts and I have never been able to access them through Outlook 2010. No problems with web access thru any browser. Here are the settings:

Incoming Mail (POP) Server
Server - pop.mail.yahoo.com
Port - 995
Requires SSL - Yes

Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server
Server - smtp.mail.yahoo.com
Port - 465 or 587
Requires SSL - Yes
Requires TLS - Yes (if available)
Requires authentication - Yes

Login info
User Name: everything to the left of the @ sign in the email address
e.g., name for L: [email protected]
Password - Account password.
Requires authentication - Yes

Server always rejects the logon attempt:





I have read where yahoo requires an app password or DMARC authentifcation but I don't know whether that is true or not. If so I don't think I would be able to access my yahoo account through Outlook 2010. Any way I would appreciate some help here. Note: I have configured many email accounts via Outlook (now 2010) thru pop servers and currently have gmail accounts receiving and sending mail thru outlook as well as emails that I host thru my own domain.

The reason I would like to get the yahoo accounts working thru Outlook is that I have a need to use alias addresses and yahoo supports 500 disposable (alias) email addresses per account.

 

problems with yahoo mail

Welcome to the forum !

The first answer you will receive here is that due to security issues many have chosen another email provider besides Yahoo. However, I have 2 Yahoo accts and have not encountered problems.

Does the issue only occur when typing emails ? Is there any problems when you type website addresses ?

- When using IE to access Yahoo and problems occur, refresh the page in hopes to eliminate buffering/stalling.

- Clear IE cache. (Internet Options/Delete)

- Using Edge browser, type yahoo.com in the address bar. Access your email by clicking on Mail at the top of the page.

- Also, after you click on Mail at the top of page, put your cursor on the Y at top of page and left click. You may then drag the Y to your taskbar for quick access to mail.

- You may want to download Firefox or Chrome to see if any difference.

Let us know if there is a difference.
