  5. Select Sign in with IMAP.
  6. Enter your email, password, IMAP host, IMAP port, SMTP host, and whether or not SSL is required. Find the Yahoo host and port information below:
  7. Optional: Set up an app password. Depending on your provider, you may need to use the password for the client, not the server. 
  8. Choose who can send emails from this account, create signatures, and create email templates.
  9. Click Done.
