Hi,
it's not about considering to use it, just the opposite, I'd really
like to offer OAuth2 for Yahoo! servers, but Yahoo! offers only these
scopes for new applications (as of today) [1]:
| Select private user data APIs that your application needs to access.
|
| [ ] Contacts
| [ ] Fantasy Sports
| [ ] Oath Ad Platforms
| [ ] Profiles (Social Directory)
| [ ] Relationships (Social Directory)
There's no mail, there's no calendar, only contacts would be usable for
Evolution(-data-server).
Thank you for a detailed, as usual, analysis. I followed your steps and
found no solutions either.
In addition, my personal interpretation, based on [1] and [2], that non
OAuth2 IMAP access will be permanently disabled from March 2nd, 2020
thus making Evolution Mail completely unusable with Yahoo.
One of answers [3] mentions that Yahoo must explicitly enable Mail API:
In order for you to see the mail checkboxes in the list of potential
scopes, Yahoo have to white-list your developer account. I could not
find any documentation about this, or instructions for how to ask for
it, so I can't back this up with any documentation.
Regards,
Eugene.
