AT&T Yahoo account when I change the password on server and I change the password on TB I get server errors

more options

I never get the Yahoo logon box that I used to get when I first set up the account to authorize my device with Yahoo. AT&T uses Yahoo Mail to read my email. How do I get the logon authorization box to come up again?

Chosen solution

With inbound.att.net, the authentication should be 'normal password' but use a secure mail key instead of the account password. Delete the passwords from options/Security/Passwords/Saved Passwords, restart TB, and enter the key when prompted.

Here is the error message. Error on the server but password is correct. This happens for any AT&T account.

Thank you, AT&T didn't tell me this stuff. Downloading 6000+ missed emails. :)
