I get the message Sending of password did not succeed. Mail server pop.mail.yahoo.co.uk responded error logging in. Please visit http//mail.yahoo.com<br />

You can't access your free yahoo mail in thunderbird. If you want to do that, you have to pay for yahoo mail plus

Incoming Mail Server (POP3) pop.mail.yahoo.co.uk
Use SSL, port 995
Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP) smtp.mail.yahoo.co.uk
Use SSL, port 465, use authentication
Account Name/Username @yahoo.co.uk
Email address @yahoo.co.uk
Password Your Yahoo! Mail password

Note both incoming and outgoing require SSL.

you can use the standard ports

pop pop.mail.yahoo.co.uk (port 110)
smtp smtp.mail.yahoo.co.uk (port 25)

just make sure that you dont put @yahoo.co.uk on the user id, just type in your plain username, this is a common mistake, it will not work, it will keep on asking for your user id and pass
