Help Yahoo! Mail not synching again...

Plz Help! My Yahoo! email accounts stopped syncing again after the recent 2.3.3? Android update. Deleting, rebooting, and adding back accounts helped when I had previous mail syncing issues.
The Yahoo! icon setup in accounts can't contact Yahoo's server when the account is being established. I also tried the generic 'email' account setup with the following:
Incoming IMAP Server - imap.mail.yahoo.com port 993
Outgoing SMTP Server - smtp.mail.yahoo.com port 465
Note: These are based on Yahoo! suggestions... I tried some older port
numbers I Googled... none worked.

I can't get the generic email or Yahoo! email accounts to sync. I don't want to use Yahoo's "Mail for Android"(c) app, or worse access email via browser. Any suggestions? Thx!
 
Mine does that every now and then. No rhyme or reason. If I reboot my phone it seems to make the connection(most of the time)
 
Don't upgrade your account to the new PC split window interface. If you have, open your account on a PC, choose Options and choose revert to classic mode. Had the same thing happen to me two months ago and the PC upgrade was the culprit.
