I have a Netbook, and I have a version of the former mageia 5.1 i586,
But with Clas-Mail's version 3.11.1 available, it works fine.
The settings are the same.

Two weeks ago on the big machine 64-bit Mageia 6 also worked.

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. urpmi claws-mail-3.15.0-4.mga6
2. setting the new Yahoo IMAP account 
3. Check account

Here is something about this: http://tinyurl.com/yb5u9c7l

Hello,

Can you try to change the IMAP authentication method to plaintext? (in account parameter, receive).

Here, I see that claws fails to authenticate with PLAIN and LOGIN before succeeding with plaintext.

see this post from the thread you linked :

This message is a reminder that Mageia 6 is end of life.

Mageia stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Mageia 6. At that time this bug will be closed as OLD (EOL).

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to 
fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later 
Mageia version prior to Mageia 6's end of life.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we cannot 
be able to fix it before Mageia 6 was end of life.
If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Mageia, you are encouraged to click on "Version" and change it against that version of Mageia.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, 
sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Mageia 
release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
