mail and yahoo business mail

I can not connect my business mail back up to my iphone mail app. (had to update yahoo business mail) I now keep getting error "cannot connect using SSL" if I skip this step, the mail does not send or receive. I have the right settings, but mail setup in settings does not give the option to use SSL or a different port. I cannot find advanced settings to add SSL or different Ports. I have server setting for both POP and IMAP for bizmail

iPhone XR, iOS 12

I too could not login to Yahoo Mail and I found since I had two step verification turned on I had to also create an app password for my iPhone and iPad each in security settings. I found I was not able to access yahoo security settings from their webpage it kept taking me back to Mail screen when I tried to choose security settings. I had to install the Yahoo Mail app and access settings within the app and create the app passwords there .
