I'm trying to set up an existing email account on a new computer. Thunderbird finds the configuration on the server, but chokes when I click Done and it attempts to verify the password. I use that password to log into Yahoo (att account), and have typed it several times, so I know that a mis-typed password isn't the issue. Please advise.
