    I’m having trouble connecting a Yahoo account to Fluent SMTP. I setup the app password in Yahoo and used that as the password.

    SMTP host: smtp.mail.yahoo.com
    SMTP port: 465
    Encryption: SSL
    Auto use TLS checked
    Authentication checked
    SMTP Username is the full yahoo email address.
    SMTP password is the app password

    Any help is appreciated! Thank you

    Hello @topcat ,

    To further investigate this issue, I would like to suggest that you check the logs and the status of the emails sent through Fluent SMTP. This will help us determine if the email was successfully sent from your WordPress website and identify any issues with email delivery.

    To check the email delivery log for Fluent SMTP, please follow these steps:

    1. Navigate to the Fluent SMTP Dashboard in your WordPress admin area.
    2. Look for the ‘Email Logs’ section to view recent email delivery attempts and their statuses.
    3. Click on the ‘View’ icon button for any failed email log.
    4. A popup window will open displaying a list of all the emails sent through Fluent SMTP. This includes the recipient’s email address, the subject of the email, the date and time it was sent, and the technical status of the email.
    5. Scroll down to find the ‘Technical Section’ and inspect the message to understand why the email has failed. A screenshot of the full page along with the Error Message will be very helpful for me to assist you further.

    To assist you further, I’m including a guide on how to get Technical Details:

    Please follow the steps outlined in the guide, collect the error message and any other relevant information, and send it over to me. I’ll be happy to review the details and help you find a solution to this issue.

    I think this is what you’re asking for.

    Same error here for Yahoo email address!

    Also, test message was sent successfully, but when submitting from the form the error occurs.
    SMTP Error: data not accepted.

    @aldograbic, it did that for me as well. I ended up disabling SMTP and the form is working. I’m not sure that’s a good longterm solution, but I’m keeping an eye on it.

    @topcat Found a fix, hope that it will work for you also. Try removing reply-to header. Found out that Yahoo has some type of policy for that.
