yahoo email won't update on iphone

How do I get my yahoo email to continue its updates - the message I get at the bottom of the screen is "account error - cannot get mail. Connection to server failed."


That's it - no options to correct the situation. I can connect on my macbook just fine.

iPhone 8 Plus, iOS 12

Are you using Apple Mail app or Yahoo app?

If the former, check your account in Settings>Account&Password>Your Account>SMTP parameters... then, tap on Advanced, and check the IMAP parameters there.

If the latter, contact Yahoo support team.
