Yahoo problem sending E-mails |
Top Previous Next |
As with GMail, the Yahoo E-mail service has a new setting that can prevent E-mailing through their SMTP server. If Campground Master suddenly stops being able to send confirmation E-mails and you use a Yahoo account (using the Yahoo SMTP server), it's most likely due to the new feature that blocks SMTP for a lot of people until you change a security option.
To solve it:
1. Sign in to your Yahoo account on the web.
2. Go to "Account Security Settings":
https://login.yahoo.com/account/security#less-secure-apps
3. Toward the bottom you will find a box/section 'Allow apps that use less secure sign in'. Make sure it's "on" (click to the right end of the slider, it should turn blue).
Now E-mail should work.
