You will be very surprised to learn one of your addons may be doing this. Specifically the DuckDuckGo Privacy Essentials addon. It was reported disabling this addon allowed people to login into their AT&T Yahoo emails without errors. It seemed to be a popular problem from Jan to February of this year.
To disable or remove this addon, please read: Disable or remove Add-ons
I would uninstall this addon. You don't really need it.

If you don't have this addon installed, try disabling the other addons you have and then go back to the AT&T Yahoo site to check your mail. Let us know if DuckDuckGo Essentials or another addon was the problem. Thanks

Email didn't work for over a week, didn't work this morning, created Mozilla account - it worked for 1 day.
Now not working again. Just get a page that "something went wrong"
