I have had an IMAP email content sensor set up for about a year now and has been working well until recently. I believe it to have been 2023.3 that broke it, or at least was around that time that something changed.
Every morning when the school bus arrives and email is sent out and alerts my kid that he needs to head to the bus stop, I delete the email and it resets for hte next iteration. Recently though deleting the email doesn’t reset the sensor.
Is anyone else experiencing the same?
When I restart home assistant it will reset the sensor because there is no email in the inbox and when it does appear in the mornings it will trigger the automation correctly, but I certainly don’t want to have to restart home assistant every day to fix it.

Looks like this integration will be deprecated in the next releases.

## Proposed change
<!--
Describe the big picture of your changes here to communicate to the
maintainers why we should accept this pull request. If it fixes a bug
or resolves a feature request, be sure to link to that issue in the
additional information section.
-->
Deprecate the `imap_email_content_integrations`. The IMAP server config can be migrated to the `imap` integration with a repair flow. A `yaml` configuration is generated to set up a template sensor and is shown in the flow to allow the user to copy and past the config into `configuration.yaml`.
Base on the original configuration:
```yaml
sensor:
- platform: imap_email_content
name: Notifications
server: imap.example.com
port: 993
username: [email protected]
password: LdH0@gv!
folder: INBOX.Notification
value_template: "{{ subject }}"
```
The repair flow will look like:

If the IMAP config is migrated but the user has not removed the `imap_email_content` configuration from `configuration.yaml` the next time Home Assistant is started, then a non fixable issue is created.
With that warning again is shown how to setup a template sensor with together with the `imap` config entry.

ooo lovely! Thanks for the link.
Does the imap integration work with yahoo email accounts? I have tried inputting my credentials during setup ,but it randomly says it failed on email, password, and search fields input.
