Did you follow this?

How do I add a Yahoo account?

If your email address is using one of the supported domains, adding a Yahoo account should be fairly straight-forward.

Hey guys,
I get the same error. I also have an @yahoo.de address. I think this issue still might be on K9mail’s side though, because I can authorize Thunderbird for this account via OAuth without any problem. I double checked by removing Thunderbird from the list of granted apps in the yahoo account settings and Thunderbird gave me a new OAuth login prompt which worked.

Btw. the error message in the screenshot above translates as follows:

Oopsie!

Apparently an error occured.
Please try again later.

Edit: I didn’t notice the hint for the developers at the very bottom of the error message. I guess this further indicates an error on K9mail’s side?

The light Gray Message at the Bottom of my Screenshot might be helpful.

So, it’s definitely a K9 Problem. I tried BlueMail, and this App works without Issues. We have to wait for a Fix.

Just came here looking for the same thing. Not working for yahoo.ca, with the same error. Bluemail also (thanks to this post) does work with oath on the same device.
