Trying to set up pop or imap connection to yahoo.com.

My web password works from Chrome but not from MS Outlook. I presume you require an app specific password.

Your procedure from creating an app password fails with a message along the lines of "this account is not allowed to create an app password" with no further elaboration. A bit of googling finds tons of complaints from people in the same situation.

Please fix it or explain what one has to do to predictably create an app passwoed.

Thanks.
