2 email accounts on the same server work fine when directly on the server (Yahoo). In Thuinderbird one account can receive mail but not send, the other can send but not receive mail. Tried to delete the accounts to start over but can only delete one of the accounts. I am sure I screwed something up when first starting out as I am a newbie to Thunderbird. I did do an uninstall but that only changed data on my machine, not in the mozilla account. Thanks for your help.

Check that you have the accounts sending on the correct smtp servers, and also that the authentication method for incoming and outgoing servers is OAuth2.
