For the RETR command to fail, there has to be a problem on the server. The mail client (Thunderbird) is only asking the server to provide what it has already said is available.

Check with AT&T about this.

I have this error also--and it seems to have started when ATT?Yahoo switched to their new mail pgm/format.
