IMAP server errors Yahoo mail
Hi All,
I am on the latest release 156.0 on Windows 10. I have 3 email accounts, 2 gmail and 1 yahoo. The Yahoo account has been giving me problems since the last 2 weeks. Mind that yesterday I have a completely new Windows 10 installation so also TB installation is new.
I have renewed the Oath login, all messages were downloaded without a problem, but once in a while I get different notifications about server errors such as the ones below. There's also a third type of message error but haven't been able to get a screenshot of it.
Could someone please help me to solve this issue? I really don't understand why the problem is intermittent. Thanks in advance!

A new error

So Yahoo message retrieval works, sometimes? If yes, then (I assume) not a total failure of wrong Oath login data. Their server could be busy. Have you checked Yahoo's latest server settings against what's in Tbird?

Thank you for the reply, yes messages are retrieved without any issue. The problem seems to appear only when I'm not in thunderbird itself. There are only three settings for IMAP and those are correct on my installation.My connection security is set to SSL/TLS
I really don't understand why I get these random messages.
