Unable to add yahoo.com mail account to outlook.com account for syncing

IMAP for yahoo.com is active and password / username entered is correct. Yet unable to add yahoo.com mail address for syncing from outlook.com mail account. Error message-"The username or password for this account is incorrect."

1. I am able to login to the http://yahoo.com/ account from the web browser using the same login and password as entered while  syncing on http://outlook.com/ account. There is no problem in logging to my http://yahoo.com/ account using yahoo page using the same username and password as entered while syncing to http://outlook.com/ account
2. There is no problem in logging to http://yahoo.com/ mail account using any imap client using the same Username and password as entered for syncing with http://outlook.com/ mail account. 
3. I have tried adding the http://yahoo.com/ sync account to the http://outlook.com/ account from multiple networks - cellular or WiFi. Problem remains the same.
