Thunderbird suddenly says "authentication failed" for my rocketmail email. Was working fine up til now. I can still log into the email directly via Yahoo. Any ideas on how to fix this.

Hi Matt, thanks for responding -- It was set to "normal password" but it's been working fine up til just now (which seems weird?). I just changed it to oauth2, and Hallelujah! - it seems to have fixed it. THANK YOU!!  :D
