Yahoo login needs Oauth2?

Post by wysocki »

I've added my Yahoo email account to Popman a long time ago using SSL IMAP and it worked. I've just setup a new computer with that configuration but it doesn't connect to Yahoo.

I read that Yahoo will only support Oauth2 for IMAP since May 2024. If this is true, how can I setup Oauth2 for my Yahoo email in Popman?

It is not possible to use OAuth2 in PopMan.

For Google Mail and Yahoo Mail, there is the option to create an "App Password".
