My desktop yahoo email does not sync with yahoo server i.e, IMAP settings are not working. But IMAP settings are working on yahoo app on android phone.
Third-party email clients, like Outlook and Mac Mail, use either POP or IMAP protocols to connect to your Yahoo Mail account. These apps need a lot of things to align perfectly in order for them to work properly with an email account. Use these steps to identify and fix the source of the problem:

I use thunderbird as an email client, I need to store, access and review my emails OFFLINE. Yahoo is blocking my sinc and I can no longer find the control to override that. either give me back my control, give me back a client that I can use for free, or I;m done with yahoo, I'll take my website and email to a new host

I use Outlook. Because I need to. The upgrade in Yahoo mail caused the break. Yahoo does not all POP due to security.
Where is the incoming IMAP server for Yahoo?
I used the "Fix POP and IMAP" help instructions. My accounts work correctly. The last statement " ...then there's something wrong with the app you're using......Alternatively, you can use a different third-party email app.", is unfortunate for all Yahoo mail and Outlook users.
In my case Yahoo will lose out. Yahoo made a change for security - fine. Yahoo identified the problem -POP. Yahoo didn't allow these users to use incoming IMAP incoming. Why?

I have to change my app password (AGAIN!) because your SMTP servers topped working with Outlook (AGAIN!) and then your links all land me back in my Inbox rather than the security page where it should. Get your act together! If it weren't such a hassle to switch web hosting, I'd already be gone.

After upgrading my Yahoo mail, Outlook is no longer able to retrieve my emails - whether I input the previous password or the new password I was required to enter. What did you break?

Mailboxes should sync across all devices. If i delete emails on my phone app, I don't want to have to delete them when I log in through browser.

I am unable to sync my Yahoo mail account with my new Outlook account. I notice a lot of similar issues around the web, but I have found no solutions. Outlook customer service assures me that this is a Yahoo issue. Please fix this: I would much rather sync my accounts than have to make a complete switch. I had no trouble at all syncing Gmail but when I try to sync Yahoo it simply doesn't work; no errors, just doesn't do anything. I have the correct IMAP and SMTP servers and ports entered. I have tried both the regular password and the generated password. Nothing works.
