This is a new Fedora-42 desktop, upgraded (dnf upgrade) today.
I installed Thunderbird today (dnf install thunderbird), after doing the operating system upgrade.
I tried to add my yahoo e-mail account. Settings are as follows:
- create accounts in the new Account Hub is unchecked (off).
- accept cookies from sites is checked (on).
- remember password is checked (on).
- I'm using "IMAP".
When I click "Done", a separate window pops up in which yahoo asks for my password. After entering it, yahoo says "Something went wrong", and gives no other indication of what the problem is.
If I instead "Configure manually"...
I tried both the default hostnames and "export.imap.mail.yahoo.com" for the outgoing server.
I tried both "Normal Password" and "OAuth2" authentication methods.
In all the above cases, I get "Unable to log in at server. Probably wrong configuration , username or password." with a yellow background.
I see nothing of "Edge Too many requests" as was happening to several people recently.
How do I add my yahoo account to this new Thunderbird on Fedora-42?
