Oauth fails on Yahoo. Two items.

    I installed and activated Postman
    In creating Yahoo app encountered a problem. I used Setup wizard.
    Creating app at Yahoo worked well, but in step Under ‘API Permissions’ choose ‘Mail’. Under ‘Mail’ choose ‘Read/Write’ There was no “Mail” option. There was Contacts, and several other unrelated items, but not mail.
    The app was created successfully.
    Then it said I needed to authorize Yahoo app. So I clicked authorize, and it responded “OOPS” Nothing more. A big screen with OOPS written on it.

    What more info do you need?
    Using Firefox browser, WIn 10, WP 4.5, latest version of postman.
    It does send email, just in non secure fashion.

    Well I don’t know when you might get to this post.
    I found a post about 7 months old where someone was having same problem. You decided Yahoo was broken.
    I redid the set up with a google account and theirs worked.
    Thanks.

    Yahoo has been a pain in the ass since I started this project. I’m thinking of pulling support for Yahoo’s OAuth 2.0 from Postman.
