I am having trouble adding my yahoo email account to Thunderbird. It keeps telling me I have the wrong email, password, or configuration. I definitely have the correct email and password. What can I do? I don't know how to change the configuration.

There have been a number of posts recently about Yahoo, and they appear to be doing some updates to their service. There is a possibilty that you need an app password (just my guess, nothing more), but you might try going to https://help.yahoo.com/kb/SLN15241.html and getting an app password and see if that works.
