Public bug reported:

I was using Empathy 2.34.0 in Gnome 2/Classic in Ubuntu 11.04.

I changed my Yahoo! account password. At first I could connect to Yahoo!
by opening the accounts menu and typing the new password there. For
whatever reason, Empathy was unable to store/remember the password, and
reverted to the old password the next time I started it. I made a bug
report of this issue:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/empathy/+bug/1027420

The suggested fix was to enter "passwords and encryption keys" and
delete everything related to Empathy in there. I was unable to delete
anything, but was able to correct the passwords.

Now Empathy can't connect at all. I tried rebooting, but it has not
fixed this.

Steps to reproduce:

Change Yahoo! account password.

Change passwords in "passwords in encryption keys" to match.
