Try instaling the Outlook app and use these settings with it because there are ongoing issue with the email app on iphones:

 

Select either "Other" or "Not Yahoo" then use these settings:


Incoming Mail (IMAP) Server

Server - imap.tools.sky.com
Port - 993
Requires SSL - Yes


Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server

Server - smtp.tools.sky.com
Port - 465
Requires SSL - Yes
Requires authentication - Yes


You will then need to generate a 16 digit password and use that instead of your usual one, you can do that here:
https://www.sky.com/sky-yahoo-mail/manage-apps?client=email

If you're using the iPhone's standard Mail app, there are known to be intermittent problems with it, when trying to access Sky Yahoo Mail. Awaiting a fix from Apple.

When setting up the account are you using Manual or the Yahoo option? I managed to set up Sky email via the Yahoo option in my iDevices.

Virginia.
I don’t work for Sky.
