Please help me to get my email to download in Thunderbird. Since May 7, have got the message "Error with account xxxxxxxxx@sbcglobal.net Sending of password for user xxxxxxx@sbcglobal.net did not suceed.  Mail server inbound.att.net responded: [SYS/TEMP] Server error - Please try again later."

Where xxxxxx is either of my accounts.

I can (and do) get my emails using the AT&T ap: https://mail.yahoo.com/

I have been using Thunderbird for decades, and prefer not to try and find another program, and lose all my existing email history.
