I got th s8 plus a few days ago and now with the new phone I am not getting notifications for my Yahoo email. I checked and as far as I can see I have all the settings correct, and the app is up to date. Is there something that I am missing?

I had the same problem with my s8 and here is what I found worked for me..
Go to Apps in your phone settings, next select App manager. After that select the three dots on the top right corner, then select special access. after that go to Optimize battery usage. Then select all Apps. find Yahoo Mail and it should show that it is on (bar slid to the right). Turn this off. Samsung wants to save as much battery usage to make you use less battery. So if your like me you don't care that your saving battery, I just want to see notifications for my mail as soon as I get them. So you just turn off battery saver for that App. After that go to yahoo App in Apps. force stop or close it. Then go to your Yahoo mail settings (in the actual mail settings in yahoo). And scroll down to clear cache, select it and that should do it for you. I tested this today and this worked for me. If your having the same problems with other Apps. you should just be able to follow these steps and it should work. Let me know if this worked or helped you out.
