I got sent a link to "allow Thunderbird to access Yahoo mail." That solved the problem on that computer. But I can't get it to work on another computer. I need to make this change on 4 computers altogether. Please help. BTW it said Yahoo Mail Read and Write. Only the Read part really works. You can write, but not Send what you write.
