SBCglobal.net/Yahoo not working

Recently I had to change passowrd for this email account. Now I can’t use eM Client as it doesn’t connect.

What happened?

Hi Michael,
this is unfortunately connected to a current oAuth issue on Yahoo, by changing the password you disabled the current oAuth permission for eM Client and new one cannot be made automatically.

This past weekend our OAuth registration at the Yahoo Developer Portal experienced some issues and our oAuth access for Mail, Contatcs and Calendar is not currently working.
We have contacted Yahoo Developer support to get it back up soon.

In the meantime, the only way to set up a Yahoo account is manually via the Mail>Other option so you can insert a password directly (app password) instead of being taken to the oAuth login.
Follow these steps to create a Yahoo App Password - https://help.yahoo.com/kb/SLN15241.html

We apologize for the inconvenience.

Hi Olivia !

Is this Yahoo oAuth issue now resolved?

Thanks !
Rob

Hi Olivia ! Can you provide additional detail regarding Mail > Other ? I do not see see “Mail” in the main menu. I do not see “Mail”

There was an update on the announcement yesterday.
