I have three Rogers email accounts on the Yahoo server and use Thunderbird as my POP client.
Until yesterday afternoon, I was able to send and receive messages for the three accounts using Thunderbird but now I can send through all 3 but only receive on through 2. The account causing "receiving" trouble is "i75dave@rogers.com"
I signed on to the Yahoo account for the problem account and had a note to change my password due to some suspicious activity. I did this using the correct Yahoo password protocols - upper/lower characters, numbers and "!" as the special characters.
While in my Yahoo inbox, I noticed several messages ready to download to Thunderbird
Switched to Thunderbird I tried to download messages for this account but after a minute or so, received the message:
Error with account i75Dave@rogers.com
Sending of password for user i75Dave@rogers.com did not succeed. Mail server pop.mail.yahoo.com responded: server error - Please try again later.
In Thunderbird, I went through ...
Tools -> Options -> Security -> Passwords -> Saved Passwords -> Show Passwords -> Yes
and for i75Dave@rogers.com changed the password on both the POP and SMTP to the new one I changed on the Yahoo server.
Sent i75Dave@rogers.com a test message through my wife's computer.
Message: Host connected. Sending login information ... and then the same password error.
Closed down, rebooted, reloaded Thunderbird - same password error.
Can anybody help me gain control over i75Dave@rogers.com in Thunderbird for incoming messages?
A BIG thank you if you can help me.
Dave.
