IN Thunderbird I can't receive emails on one of my accts.
In Thunder bird it won't accept the password for a Yahoo acct. How do I change the password in Thunder bird so it will accept mail. the saved pass word in the password file is correct fo the inbound server? When I ask to download emails it asks for a password. I enter the correct yahoo mail password , but Thunderbird rejects it. I assume the password in the acct file is wrong. How do I change that. The password in the password file is correct. I'm befuddled

Yahoo have recently changed how they allow people to access their emails. All POP and IMAP mail accounts must start to use OAuth2 as the Authentication Method.
