Welcome to Android Central! Are you using the Yahoo Mail app or Samsung's stock email app? If the latter, make sure you've adjusted your Yahoo security settings to allow "less secure" mail apps like the stock email app to access your account -- see the steps here under "Give temporary access": https://help.yahoo.com/kb/SLN27791.html

If you don't want to allow less secure apps, you can continue to use the Yahoo mail client or a client like MailDroid which has the required secuirty approach that Yahoo wants.
