Migration to yahoo is a NIGHTMARE

I have been able to use Yahoo to email.  I'm sending and receiving just find.  However, I want to do so in Outlook.  Please don't send over the settings.  I have tried it all.  I DELETED my account and started from scratch.  I simply says there is trouble connecting to the server.  I have cleared/deleted/reset/shutdown antivirus (It was working fine before)   I have an outlook.com email that is working fine.  What can I do to use outlook again???

Have you attempted to update your IMAP settings within Outlook? There was a setting within our email client that was required to be selected for 3rd party apps to access the email address. Have you poked around in the Yahoo Mail settings?
