Suddenly and for no reason I can't send any mail, or reply, using my Yahoo address. I can receive yahoo mail and my other Hotmail and Gmail accounts are working fine. This is creating havoc as this is my main business account. I have tried deleting and recreating the account. I have checked all the settings and everything seems fine. I have created a new password to no avail. I can use my yahoo mail account online but I want to use Thunderbird it's convenient and I like it. Any help would be gratefully recieved

First of all, are you 100% absolutely, completely, totally sure that the SMTP settings for your Yahoo account are set in Thunderbird the way Yahoo says they should be? (https://help.yahoo.com/kb/SLN4075.html)

   Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server
   Server - smtp.mail.yahoo.com
   Port - 465 or 587
   Requires SSL - Yes
   Requires authentication - Yes

For my sanity, please double check!

Next thing to check is if you need to use an App password, or a "3rd party app password" as Yahoo calls it. Yahoo: Understand and create 3rd party app passwords OR Temporarily allow or deny access to apps using older security sign in ("temporarily" being the operative word here).
