I got this error a lot of times, when i try sending emails from yahoo, when i use the stock app. receiving emails works fine, i see emails...but if i try to reply, the email remains in outbox and "error signing in" keeps appearing in notification bar. the password is correct, i tried also not requesting password when sending, but the error appears.
any solution?

except other email apps (i use also yahoo app, but i don't like it, and i don't want to sync non stop) and advices to uses to gmail. i have both for different reasons.
i tried also searching for different imap settings, but i could not find a proper one.
thank you.

Are you talking the email app or the gmail app?

I had this as well. Ridiculously annoying. You have to manually change some of the settings. Follow the instructions in this link: https://help.yahoo.com/kb/mobile/set-yahoo-mail-android-mail-sln3696.html?impressions=true. I haven't had any issues since following those directions. Hope this helps.
