Thunderbird keeps asking for my password when I try to send emai but still doesn't work after I enter it.

I am using Thunderbird Ver. 35 and yahoo mail as my server on a windows 7 64 bit computer. I use the same password on Thunderbird and Yahoo. I always click the "use password manager to remember password" box. Occasionally the mail is sent but very infrequently. Can you help?

Is the username correct? Tbird will complain about the password if the username is wrong.

it's not asking for a user name just the pass word. I can log into Yahoo mail using my user name and password with no problem. I assume the user name is the same for both.

With Thunderbird, you have to set a username as well. It appears in Account Settings > Server Settings for an account.

I have the user name set as you say. Things are working today. I think Thunderbird had a screw up.
