User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; en-GB; rv:1.8.1.4) Gecko/20070515 Firefox/2.0.0.4
Build Identifier: Thunderbird 2

The problem started sometimes last week. When I try to log in I get a message "Sending password did not succeed.Mail server pop.mail.yahoo.co.uk responded:Error loggin in.Please visit http://mail.yahoo.co.uk"

As I said,I've been using Thundrebird for a few years now and this problem only started last week. I know I'm using the right password.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.My e-mail: grabanrad@yahoo.co.uk
2.Password: [removed by admin]
3.Try to create new account using Yahoo pop and smpt and try to log in.
You'll have to contact your email service provider (Yahoo) about this problem, it's not a problem with Thunderbird itself.

It's also not a good idea to post your password in a public bug system, marking the bug confidential for the moment until we can have it removed by an admin. I recommend you change your password once you've got your access sorted out again.

password removed.  You should still change it when you get a chance.   A lot of people got email with the initial comment, and I have no way to recall those.
