Update: I finally got Outlook and iphone set up to send/receive emails (knock on wood the fix holds0. I'm convinced that something was wrong on Yahoo's side since I gradually regained ability to send first via webmail, Outlook and iphone, then regained ability to receive via webmail, then got Outlook 365 desktop app to accept same imap and smtp settings that repeatedly failed previously. I also disabled two-factor authentication, which seemed to eliminate need to use Yahoo's random third-party app password (which didn't work anyhow.) My iPhone mail started working after I first used iPhone's default yahoo mail setup, then manually added another yahoo smtp account as backup.
Question. I got a Verification password from the yahoo site, and was able to send and receive email on my iPhone. When I try and set up my outlook mail account, everything appears to be correct, but I am using the same password I used on my iPhone. Did you use the same password or did you go back and generate a new and different password for outlook? I am using port 995 and 465. I can send a Test email from Microsoft outlook, but an error on incoming? When I check my iPhone it shows the test message sent, but it is failing on receiving emails in outlook???
