Correct IMAP Settings for Blackberry Z10

DieselTurbo — Thu, 30 Sep 2021 11:13:28 GMT

I used to be able to get my Sky email on my Blackberry Z10 after the change to Yahoo, but it stopped updating a while back & having tried [over many, many months] all of the listed fixes, none of them have worked.

Every time I try to re-set-up the account, I get an error message saying that "Your login information for IMAP server [imap.mail.yahoo.com] has changed or is incorrect Please check your settings."

As far as I can see, everything is correct

The sixteen character IMAP password might be a fix, but -
A) I'm not clear if this would reset my account password as well as creating a Yahoo-specific email password, &
B) there is no on the setupscreen to put in an IMAP password, SMTP, yes, but IMAP, no,

I am not about to change my phone just to get my sky mail as I am completely happy with the phone & frankly nothing better has yet come on the market, so.......

HELP!!!!

I would try the 16 digit password which can be generated here:

https://www.sky.com/sky-yahoo-mail/manage-apps?client=email

There must be a setting somewhere that it can be entered for IMAP ?

A. No. It's for Sky Yahoo Mail only.

B. The 16 character password simply replaces the Sky password that you must have previously entered into your Blackberry to receive emails via Sky Yahoo Mail.

If all else fails, you can still access Sky Yahoo Mail via your browser.
