Thunderbird will not connect to my email server as of 11/07/20. Message:" Sending of password for _____________( my email address) did not succeed. Mail server pop.ATT.yahoo.com responded: Server error. – Please try again later." I have tried the fixes that were suggested on the Internet with no success. I am hoping that someone has a solution to this problem.

The correct POP server for AT&T is inbound.att.net on port 995, SSL/TLS, and a secure mail key must be entered in place of the account password.
