SUMMARY
***
Adding yahoo emails to kmail is impossible, as the app opens up a Google login
webpage
Trying to change the authentication method to others like "Plain", "login" etc.
doesn't do anything.
I have even disabled my 2FA on my yahoo account, it is still not working.
It shows the account as "ready" in the settings with a green check, but there
is nothing coming through.
***


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Add a yahoo account to kmail is the only step you need to reproduce this
issue

OBSERVED RESULT
Authentication opens a Google sign in web page even though Yahoo is the account
being added to kmail

EXPECTED RESULT
To be able to add yahoo accounts to kmail
- To open an actual yahoo authentication window to sing in and add the yahoo
account
