Saved Passwords - Accidentally deleted instead of edited. How can I get the mapping back to send emai?

Thunderbird Save passwords

When I went into saved passwords, I misunderstood the instructions and deleted the accounts instead of deleting the current password. The request does come up to update the password, but when I do, this message comes up. How can I fix this?

I have seen several posts today of users seeing this message. I then did a web search and found many user forum sites (Not just Thunderbird) posting the same question. My guess - and it's just my guess - is that there is a problem with AOL/Yahoo that they need to fix. I also duplicated this by attempting to set up an account - and received the same error as you. Something is amiss.
