Prior to this update, I had no issue with Outlook for Mac and Yahoo. I just updated to 16.73 (23051401). After updating, I had many problems with the Yahoo mail from within Outlook. It worked for the first 15 minutes, then got login errors and IMAP errors. I deleted the Yahoo account from Outlook and then quit. I then went back to Yahoo and got a new app password. I restarted Outlook and added the new app password obtained from Yahoo. It worked for the first 15 minutes then started to suddenly empty out all emails in all folders. Then the emails would eventually re-sync and reload from Yahoo. This now happens constantly. I tried the same uninstall reinstall process again, and nothing changed. Now also changes I make within Yahoo via my browser are not reflected in Outlook and changes made to Yahoo mail within Outlook are not saved when the emails clear, res-sync and reload, and they are not reflected in Yahoo online either. It's stuck in a loop. New emails DO ARRIVE and get added to the loop. Also there is a constant attempt to recreate the basic Yahoo folders: Drafts, Archive, Junk, Bulk. I get error messages saying can't be installed because they already exist - which they do! Why is it trying to reinstall them as if it is a new connection with Yahoo?
My setup is the following using OUTLOOK for MAC - BUT NOT NEW OUTLOOK. New Outlook does not support all the folders I have created over the years for organization and am unwilling to lose. I have a 16 inch MBPro M1 Max chip. Running Monterey 12.6.5.
AS a side note, I have for the past year or more had problems where white-listing emails does not work. Outlook is putting emails of people I email with regularly into SPAM. I whitelisted many of them, but Outlook is ignoring the classification and still putting those emails into SPAM.

Hi Stanley Crair
It was pure luck..
Like everybody else, I suddenly started facing this issue when I added Yahoo mail to outlook on my new mac and tried all possible suggestions I could find on net but nothing worked.
So, I went back to my old mac to see what has changed and only thing different was this port settings. So made this change on my new MBP without much hope but it just worked.
As I mentioned earlier, no idea why it works and now trying to find out why/how a port change make this problem go away...as and when I find why/how it works, I'll post an update.

Made the change this morning and have had zero issues today! Thank you Sudhanshu. FINALLY!!!
EDIT...worked for a day then back to the same issues. UGH!!!
Wow! That worked! Sudhanshu, how did you come up with that? Seems so random?
EDIT: I spoke too soon...emails still disappearing and reappearing when I delete them from Outlook...AAAARRRGGGHHH!
