Q: iMessage Yahoo account not syncing across Macbook/iPhone
I'm trying to communicate with a friend of mine who is on Windows. She is using Yahoo Messenger. I have an iPhone 6s running iOS 9.3.3 and a MacBook Air on El Capitan. I was able to set up my Yahoo account in Messages on the MacBook and exchange messages. However, none of those messages are coming through on the iPhone. I have the yahoo account for them set up as one of my send/receive addresses, I've tried to send her messages with that account set as the default send iMessage account (she didn't receive any of them), I've reset all my network settings on the iPhone, I've logged out and logged back in of all accounts on both devices, and nothing is making my iPhone connect with any messages coming from the Yahoo account in iMessage.
All the questions I've seen vaguely related to this are at least two years old and mostly involve logging out and logging back in again. Does anyone have any insight?
iPhone 6s, iOS 9.3.3
