[Users] 3rd party authentication

I have been using Claws for my Yahoo account using 3rd party access.
Recently had to do a new distro install and can't remember what to do.
I don't seem to have managed oauth2.

I have entered the 3rd party password 16 digits for yahoo. But not
sure what to set the authentication method to in Account preferences >
receive > authentication method. [PLAIN, Plain text etc]. Client ID i
assume is the yahoo username for me e.g. jrjfreer.

So i'd be grateful if someone could put me right.
