I didn't find a solution yet, but I'd like share my opinion on the possible cause of this issue. After I re-try the sign-in, the sign-in page shows an error indicating redirection loop or proxy loop error. Sometimes, I get error message saying that I'm trying to login from an unexpected country, and I have to verify the log-in with a SMS message. Some other cases, if I login the www.yahoo.com with the browser, with password and CAPTCHA, on the same connection, I re-try the login in gmail app, it works. Most of the time, in the gmail app, when I re-try the log-in, I just get a dumb error message that leaves no clue. My theory is that the yahoo server does a lousy job when it tries to balance between the user convenience and security. The server is too sensitive to "suspicious" login attempt, and didn't have a better way to offer CAPTCHA validation with the gmail login. share|improve this answer answered Jul 1 '15

So I deleted the app from my phone and tried another keyboard. I learned that swiftkey had a new version, so I reloaded the app. I went to the personalization page and asked it to learn the various relevant accounts. This worked for four out of five of the accounts I asked it to learn. Yahoo mail, however, did not work. Every time I tap it to ask it to learn, I get the error message: "yahoo authentication failed, please try again". Super. So I try again and get the same message. So here's the problem: I can't find any way to dele
