Two-Step Verification Enabled Generate an App Password
If your Yahoo account is secured with two-step verification, generate a third-party app password. You'll use this in place of your Yahoo Mail sign-in password when you configure Outlook.
No Two-Step Verification
If you don't use two-step verification to secure your Yahoo Mail account (and you don't want to enable it), set your account to allow email clients to access it using your Yahoo account sign-in password.
