Hi Yahoo Member,

We love that you love using your Yahoo Mail. And we want to make sure you always have the best experience. That’s why we’re reaching out today.

We’ve noticed that you’re using non-Yahoo applications (such as third-party email, calendar, or contact applications) that may use a less secure sign-in method. To protect you and your data, Yahoo will no longer support the current sign-in functionality in your application starting on 20 October 2020. This means that you will need to take one of the steps below to continue using Yahoo Mail without interruption.

But don’t worry, you have options. Find an option that works best for you below:

Option 1: We recommend that you access your email using our free Yahoo Mail app for iOS and Android or simply go to mail.yahoo.com to access Yahoo Mail on the web.

Option 2: Keep your current, non-Yahoo app, BUT follow a few steps to get it to sync with our secure sign-in method. The steps vary across different email applications, but in most cases, you will have to remove your Yahoo account from the app and then add it back again to update the sign-in security. Use the links below to follow the specific steps for your current application:

    iOS Mail
    Gmail
    Samsung Mail
    Others

Option 3: You can generate a one-time, unique password that will allow you to sign in to your account using your non-Yahoo email application. Once created, this password will continue to allow your app to securely sync your Yahoo email unless you sign out (or are signed out) from your app. You can find instructions on how to do this here.

If you want more details on these changes, please visit our help page. If you’ve already taken action, we’d like to think you haven’t read this far, but if you have . . . we sure appreciate the diligence!

Thanks for rocking that Yahoo Mail address!

Yours in your inbox,
The Yahoo Team

What I want to do is continue using my yahoo mail account from the non-yahoo app on my desktop, but using the same password I already have. I do not want create a one-time unique password, as the message above says, and also I do not want download yahoo mail application on my mobile phone or tablet, and start using my account from there. Also, I do not want start using the account from yahoo's web page. As you understand, I just want leave the situation as it is.

 

Also, if I go to the application on my desktop, remove the account, and set it up again, I have too many messages (thousands) for download/synchronization. Something, I do not want.

 

Is the solution to go to the account settings on the third-party application, change something there, and this will solve this problem? Has yahoo made any changes, that enforces us made all this procedure?

 

Is the solution somewhere else that you could tell me?

 

Thank you for your time!!
