What are Cox telling you which settings to use for Yahoo with your Cox email address?

Allow me to add to this question/issue; I posted a separate, but similar queston -- eager to solve the problem.

A bit of background. I have several Cox e-mail addresses and my wife has one. I have followed the Cox instructions on transitioning 3 to Yahoo. They are active and accessible as web mail at mail.yahoo.com. I was able to set up my Verizon Samsung Galaxy phone to receive the mail through my mail account using Android. I have been unable to get Thunderbird to work using either the POP settings for my e-mail or the IMAP settings for my wife's.

Yahoo provides the following setting information: POP: Server - pop.mail.yahoo.com Port - 995 Requires SSL - Yes SMTP: Server - smtp.mail.yahoo.com Port - 465 or 587 Requires SSL - Yes Requires TLS - Yes (if available) Requires authentication - Yes

IMAP: Server - imap.mail.yahoo.com Port - 993 Requires SSL - Yes SMTP: Server - smtp.mail.yahoo.com Port - 465 or 587 Requires SSL - Yes Requires authentication - Yes

In both cases login info is listed as: Email address - Your full email address (name@domain.com) [Note: We are supposed to still be able to use our Cox e-mail address, e.g., name@cox.net)] Password - Generate App Password [Note: We had to create and use a new Yahoo password and it works just fine in their web mail and in the mail on my phone noted above.] Requires authentication - Yes

In my Thunderbird settings I have used "Normal Password" for the password setting. In the settings where TB asks for user name I have tried both my full e-mail address and my usual preface before the @cox.net but without the domain name. Neither has worked.

Note: I still have my previous settings in TB for my Cox addresses, but have changed all the related entries to "old-....". I then entered new information like I was adding an existing account (now a Yahoo account which has name@cox.net as my e-mail address). Again, that all seems to work through the Yahoo web-mail and on my android phone, just not through TB. I consider web-mail to be entirely unsatisfactory.

I appreciate any help you can provide and I suspect there are hundreds of thousands (?) of folks who are being transitioned from Cox to Yahoo who are having the same problem. TIA
