My personal email account is with sbcglobal.net About 24 hours ago, I stopped receiving emails on both Thunderbird and my iPhone, but can still access via yahoo. This morning I was able to get the iPhone email working again by deleting the email account and reconnecting it. Have tried everything I can think of on Thunderbird - deleted that email account and reinstalled it; deleted Thunderbird and reinstalled, then moved my saved profile. Checked password and server settings, but can't get it to work. I have several other email accounts on my Thunderbird, none of which is sbcglobal, and they all seem to be working fine. I am not aware of any changes that happened yesterday to set this off. I welcome any help, thank you so much
