User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X; en-US; rv:1.8.0.3) Gecko/20060427 Camino/1.0.1
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X; en-US; rv:1.8.0.3) Gecko/20060427 Camino/1.0.1

my yahoo working fine on safari so passwords ok. cleared cache and cookies 3 times so not apparently that. Camino remembers login name, when password entered it is not accepted and browser returns to login/new account screen. This did not happen when Camino was originally installed and began to occur only 1 day ago. I don't know whether Yahoo changed anything. Complete cache and cookie clearing have no effect on this fault.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.go to my yahoo and login
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
returns to login screen despite having correct passord and username (this is not yahoo since safari and firefox are fine).

Expected Results:  
should take me to my.yahoo page

my.yahoo is very popular, this renders Camino unusable for me and is effectively a crash.

WFM.  Make sure you're not *blocking* any cookies from Yahoo, either.  (Exceptions List in the Privacy prefPane)

Or you might have a bad password saved in the Keychain for Camino; try re-entering the password in the Yahoo login box manually.
