I configured a Yahoo e-mail account for a friend, and she keeps telling me when ever Outlook 2013 checks for new mail, Outlook keeps asking for a password. She types in the correct password, and it still pops up. The settings are as follows:
Server
Account Type: IMAP
Incoming server: imap.mail.yahoo.com
Outgoing server (SMTP): smtp.mail.yahoo.com
User name: user@yahoo.com
Password: ********
Remember Password IS checked
More Settings...
Outgoing Server
My outgoing server (SMTP) requires authentication checked
Use same settings as my incoming mail server checked
Advanced
Server Port Numbers
Incoming server (IMAP): 993
Use the following type of encrypted connection SSL
Outgoing server (SMTP): 587
Use the following type of encrypted connection Auto
I have a funny feeling that there is something wrong with the advanced settings, but then again, I could be wrong. You are the expert. Can you help?
Thank You.
