How to resolve this error: The RETR command did not succeed. Error retrieving a message. Mail server pop.mail.yahoo.com responded: problem retrieving message.
Ability to download Yahoo pop mail using Thunderbird client stopped working a month ago. No solutions on this website or others have worked. Yahoo customer support said this was a Thunderbird Error and therefore they cannot help. Has anyone found a solution?

I have seen about a hundred solutions on this forum.
You need to delete the popstate.dat file from the Thunderbird profile folder-for the yahoo account.
Note that deleting this file WILL see all your existing mail on Yahoo redownloaded.
