cannot get email from Yahoo account anymore, have turned off phone multiple times, deleted yahoo account and put in username/password multiple times. it won't take my username/password anymore today. Even changed password on laptop and then restarted everything on my phone and it still won't work. My Notes are also all not there now either.
A friend of mine is having the same issue today, but it works fine for me, and two other accounts of hers work ok as well...
I had this type of problem months ago with gmail and was told gmail has those kinds of problems so switched to yahoo and now this is happening...even after I've troubleshooted a lot. I can't get my Notes updated either. thx
It doesn't seem to be limited to Apple devices. I have my Yahoo account setup to sync on my PC through Outlook and it stopped working late last night.
There is also this thread on this problem...

I'm stuck currently and also have a ticket into yahoo mail
Use yahoo app for iphone or add another email account as type Other and google the settings for yahoo pop access. Worked for me, not ideal but you at least see your email.
Incoming mail server settings:POP server: pop.mail.yahoo.comUse SSLPort: 995Outgoing mail server (SMTP) settings:SMTP server: smtp.mail.yahoo.comUse SSLPort: 465Use authenticationEmail address: Your Yahoo! Mail email address (for example, jo.bloggs@yahoo.com)Password: Your Yahoo! Mail passwordAccount name/sign-in name: Your Yahoo! ID (your email address without the "@yahoo.com" at the end; for example, "jo.bloggs")
Don't forget to go into smtp setting and add the username and password there if you want to send mail After yahoo gets the imap issue fixed, just disable this account in iphone settings to use as a backup in case yahoo imap goes down again.
