At&t Yahoo notice email re: security

Receive email from at&t Yahoo saying that I am using non-secure settings in
my email software and thatif I must make immediate changes if I want to
continue to send/receive email using a mail client. I think I use secure
settings. Is this something to worry about?

They're probably about to make some changes that will tighten the
requirements. See if this helps:

Thanks - the settings referred to in the link are what I already have. I'll
disregard and rest easy
