How did TB Password magically change to a "secure mail key" for AT&T Yahoo mail account?

I have always used the password from my AT&T Yahoo mail account in TB (the same one I use to sign into Yahoo web mail). I just found out that my TB password was changed to an 16 character "secure mail key". I don't know when it happened, but I didn't change it. How did it get changed?

I guess the same person that posted the same question here twice did it. Thunderbird has no "web" links for automatic updates of passwords. Only through a manual update (you must type it in or paste it in) will a password change.

Sorry for the duplicate, when I submitted the first one I got a blank screen with no confirmation.

I was surprised to see the password change, that is why I posted here. I did not type it in or paste it in or in any other way change it.

Until today I had no idea what a "secure mail key" was. I spent a few hours of research to find out. Therefore if I had changed it, even by mistake, I would have entered a normal sign-in password. (I use 12 character sign-in passwords)

Thanks for the reply. I had found those two web sites while doing my research and they both shed light on the new security changes. I still don't know how my password got changed in TB since I never used the procedure (in the linked web site) to generate a "secure mail key".

I suggest you look to others with access to the physical device then. Because Thunderbird can't do it and no one remotely has access to your computer.
