Cannot sign into Yahoo in Mail on MacBook Pro

I did contact Rogers Yahoo! and they told me that the app password generator is not available and without that password, I cannot authenticate my Yahoo account. For whatever reason, I can continue to have that account on my iOS Mail but not my macOS Mail. No fix available from them on this and no timeline for one. They told me to just download the Yahoo! Mail app. I no longer have full mail synchronization across all of my devices.

You didn't think that info wasn't key to put into your original thread?

Not sure why you would need to ask this question in an Apple forum when the issue lies with yahoo and their support gave you a work around.

Changed my Yahoo! but am not able to sign into my Yahoo account on my MacBook Pro. My iPhone 11 and iPad Pro are signed in, no problem. When I use the new password in Mac Mail it gives me the response "Authentication Failed. Failed to authenticate with Yahoo!, please try again later". I have been trying for two weeks with no luck. I am able to sign into Yahoo Mail in Safari but when I attempt to get an app password from them I get "Generating an app password is currently unavailable"

Report the issue to Yahoo support.

I did NOT have that info until I took your advice and called them just now. I posted the conclusion for the benefit of others.

My apologies, when you stated "I did" I assume it was done before you posted the question.
