Emails have stopped working
A few days ago my hotmail email stopped working in Thunderbird- a box appears asking me to enter my password for ---email address--- on imap-mail.outlook.com. When I enter the password (yes, it is correct and I have logged into the webmail version) I get a second box telling me the login failed.
Last night I began getting the same messages for one of my other emails, a business email address... Login to server imap.hosts.co.uk failed and additionally now my last email address is doing the same.
I looked up the server settings and tried to check they were all ok but all appeared as it should be. I am at a loss. I went though the options in this helps section about emails but none of the options were applicable.
Any help appreciated.

For Sky/Yahoo, try these settings:
incoming IMAP imap.mail.yahoo.com, port 993, SSL/TLS, OAuth2, email address
outgoing SMTP smtp.mail.yahoo.com, port 465, SSL/TLS, OAuth2, email address

For the hotmail account, the correct servers are outlook.office365.com and smtp.office365.com, and the authentication method is OAuth2.

For the hosts.co.uk account, compare your settings with these ones:

Thank you. Can you tell me or direct me to the settings for my sky/yahoo address?

I tried to change the settings of one when I could not get them to work but no idea how they changed initially. Anyway, thank you very much.!
