yahoo mail sync

I just got the iphone 5 and I'm trying to sync my yahoo email. After typing in my password it says yahoo server is unavailable. Anyone else have this problem?

iPhone 5, iOS 6.0.1

I have this same problem with yahoo and gmail is saying server imap.gmail has incorrect username/password. Everything is entered correctly on multiple iPhones and to no avail. It will let me enter email addresses that i have on another iPhone of mine and those work fine. Just adding a new email wont work through it. It seems to me to be a Apple issue?!?!

I contacted yahoo support. they did some maintenance on their end, told me to unistall the account, turn off the phone, restart and reinstall the account. they also said this was a complex issue and could take some time to resolve. I tried this process about 3 times with no success. I sent another email to yahoo and received no reply. Two days later I tried the steps again and it worked. My yahoo email is up and working. I would recommend contacting yahoo support to help you with this, or try the steps I outlined above.

I have the same problem on my iPhone5. It started (noticed) on Nove 18, becaue I don't have any yahoo mail coming in.I only saw the spinning wheel and indicating "downloading 1 of xx mail" After a couple of minutes, the spinning wheel wasgone, and no mail was downloaded. Other mails (gmail, and my work email) work fine. Anyone has fixed the problem and how? Thanks.
