To allow Yahoo Mail to access your account, you'll need to grant permission to the app or service you're using. Here's a step-by-step guide:

3. Scroll down to the "Security" or "Account security" section.
4. Look for the "Allow apps to access your account" or "Grant access to apps" option.
5. Toggle the switch to the "On" position to allow apps to access your Yahoo Mail account.

Method 2: Granting permission through the Yahoo Mail website

2. Click on your profile picture or username in the top right corner.
3. Select "Account info" from the dropdown menu.
4. Scroll down to the "Account security" section.

Method 3: Granting permission through a third-party app or service

1. Open the third-party app or service you're using (e.g., a calendar app, email client, or productivity tool).
2. Follow the app's instructions to link your Yahoo Mail account.
3. You may be redirected to the Yahoo Mail login page. Enter your login credentials to authenticate.
4. You may be asked to grant permission for the app to access your Yahoo Mail account. Click "Allow" or "Grant access" to continue.

What permissions are required?

When you grant permission to access your Yahoo Mail account, you're allowing the app or service to:

• Read your email messages
• Send emails on your behalf
• Access your contacts and calendar information
• Manage your account settings

Make sure to review the permissions carefully before granting access to ensure you're comfortable with the level of access being requested.

If you're unsure about granting permission or have concerns about security, you can always revoke access by following the same steps and toggling the switch to the "Off" position.
