Did you login to your yahoo account from a web browser after making the
changes?
Yahoo has been using captchas more often (at least for me, lol). Login
to yahoo from a browser, and while still logged-in try getting mail in TB.
Another trick that has seemed to work for me is by changing the POP port
number to 1024 or higher in WebMail, and use the same number in the
account POP settings as well. If you allow TB to save passwords, delete
that one password and enter and save again, when getting email.

Thanks Winux2 - I tried what you said, still not pulling mail. However
the yahoo log is now shorter and different. Are we getting closer?

Fred I noticed your log has (nsYahoo.js - loadPrefs - bBeta true) and my
log has - (nsYahoo.js - loadPrefs - bBeta null).
Since Yahoo mail servers are no longer using beta or classic you could
reset the string/boolean values. I just reset the bBeta and the
bClassic, then restarted TB. Resetting will remove the string/boolean
from the config file.
Preference Name -- Status -- Type -- Value
yahoo.Account.**email**@yahoo~com -- boolean -- bClassic -- false (right
click and select Reset)
yahoo.Account.**email**@yahoo~com -- boolean -- bBeta -- true (right
click and select Reset)
WebMail log file after the reset.
nsYahoo.js - loadPrefs - bBeta null
nsYahoo.js - loadPrefs - bClassic null
Also, after I started using "Reuse http session data" I no longer have
the following error;
YahooPOPBETA.js: loginHandler : Exception : Error.
Error message: Too Many Login's

The correct setting is disabled (until WebMail is updated to allow
cookie use), however when I clicked on Show Cookies, several cookies
were displayed and I deleted all the yahoo ones. I have several yahoo

all are working (so far).

Yesterday I deleted yahoo cookies from the TB options menu, and perhaps
it's just luck, but no errors today. I'll update if there's a change.
[TB - Tools>> Options>> Security>> Web Content>> Show

restart TB.
Please note when I experience any errors for yahoo in TB, I log-in to
the yahoo email account from a web browser before retrying access in TB.
I've encountered several yahoo captchas over the past month and most of
the time that fixed the error (for me), along with adjusting and
maintaining the settings posted below in TB. One other change not listed
here is I changed the WebMail's pop port number to fix another issue
with the network not allowing access.
