Yahoo mail no longer working via Apple mail!

I have a new Yahoo account key as instructed but instructions for use are missing. Do I have to get a code every time I check my mail? Yesterday all of my addresses were active when I returned at night my Yahoo addresses were down. I've spent a LOT of time trying to resolve problem but no recent help from Yahoo found to date. Just not good enough!

Mac Pro, OS X 10.11

Hello Othello.rsb,


It sounds as it you may have two factor verification set up for your email account and you are unable to access your email. We understand how important it is for you to be able to access your email in a timely manner. We're here to help.


Since you are using a Yahoo account with Apple Mail, we would recommend reviewing this article form Yahoo: Add two-step verification for extra security


Towards the bottom they request that you create an app password or skip this option.


Cheers!
