Problem with Yahoo! mail

I can no longer access my Yahoo! mail account. I have attached a photo of the error message I get every time. This is the error report. Can you guys please tell me how to finally fix this for good? I've gone through all the trouble of resetting my password and making sure that the OAuth2 is set. I've even deleted the email account and completely reset it.

Please refer to this post in a current topic in the forum regarding this problem with Yahoo's IMAP Servers. (Note: I have modified your post to remove potentially private information)

Addendum: Follow-up HERE more recently posted by Jeff that is relevant to the current ongoing Yahoo IMAP Server issue.

The IMAP Server problem has apparently been resolved by Yahoo! --- Refer to the ongoing topic on this subject from THIS POINT ON for the outcome.

Point of reference; in the future -- please glance over the more recent topics in the forum whenever issues like this occur so that we can hopefully avoid duplicate threads as much as possible -- thanks :D
