Thunderbird can't recognize my (new) password to Yahoo email

Hi Thunderbird,

Windows would not let me keep any apps when I upgraded to Windows 11 so I am having to set up Thunderbird again. But I also had to sign into my Yahoo account again - and had to change the password. Now Thunderbird can find my address (vervelu@yahoo.com) but it cannot verify the password.

I had an email I had to send today so had to download Outlook - against all my principles! Please, please, find a way I can get back to Thunderbird and expunge Outlook! I donate every month and have done for years. . .

Best wishes, Kitty
