Very simple fix: the password for the SMTP server was wrong.

I had updated the password when Yahoo complained while fetching IMAP mail, but I didn’t remember that I had to change the SMTP pw as well.

All works again.

Thanks for “listening”.

I’m getting an error when trying to send a pretty vanilla message through my Yahoo account:
 - - -
Unexpected return code 535 (expected 235):
“5.7.0 (#AUTH005) Too many bad auth attempts.”)
 - - -
The error I usually see if the Yahoo server is being pissy is the “Wrong password… please re-enter” pop-up. This is the first time I’ve see the 535 message.

Is this log file option available in a MailMate menu? Or is this in MacOS’ Console? I looked in Console and didn’t see any log files named MailMate.

Where is this log file? How to open it?

I went to Yahoo’s web interface and all seems OK there.

Thanks,
Dave
