It has worked fine through Feb. 27th. After that I cannot download my mail. I checked the server and I have mail there. Has anyone else had this problem?

Everyoe that has anything to do with Yahoo appears to have trouble. But that is because of what Yahoo are doing, not Thunderbird.

But with your troubles, do you see and error message? Have you enabled 2 factor authentication with Yahoo?

Thanks for the reply. Yahoo wanted me to update to their latest inbox version. When I did that it must have fixed something because all my missing emails were now downloaded into Thunderbird. So hopefully, I no longer have this problem.
