Connect the mailbox, not the Yahoo web interface
For supported mailbox operations, the agent works with email resources rather than driving Yahoo Mail visually. Yahoo authentication requirements for third-party mail access can change and may include provider-specific credentials such as an app password, so setup guidance should reflect the current account requirements.
Good first tasks are retrieval tasks
Start by asking for something concrete in the mailbox: a thread, sender, invoice or attachment. This verifies the right mailbox context before any write action.
“Find the latest invoice in my Yahoo Mail.”
“Summarize unread messages from this customer.”
“Find the attachment Sarah sent last week.”
Keep email structure intact
Folders, messages, threads and attachments are different resources. Nilyo keeps those relationships explicit so the agent can retrieve the exact item needed for a follow-up.
