I am trying Postbox.
I am having a problem getting messages to download to my IMAP accounts.
I am on Rogers (Toronto) which uses Yahoo
The POP3 account automatically retrieves messages every minute no problem
I don't have this IMAP problem with the Mac Mail app.

Settings are:
Incoming Server: imap.mail.yahoo.com
Port: 993
Username: xxxxx@rogers.com
Connection Security: SSL/TLS
Authentication: Password
Check for new messages every: 1 minute
Use Idle Command if the server supports it

Outgoing Server: smtp.mail.yahoo.com
Port:465
Connection Security: SSL/TLS
Authentication: Password
Username: xxxxx@rogers.com

Any ideas?
 
I always thought adding yahoo email through 3rd party email clients was only available for yahoo plus members. That's why I gave up on yahoo.
 
Thanks for the info.

I gave up and just switched to my Gmail accounts.
They work fine in Postbox
