@question: I have both (note my email address) & have not had any issues
since upgrading to 2.6.1. It sounds like your master password may have
been corrupted? You might try resetting your master password to see if
that resolves the issue.
Your outgoing SMTP server settions should be:
Server Name: smtp.att.yahoo.com (can also be 'outbound.att.net')
Port: 465
User Name: <your complete email address>
Authentication method: Normal password
Connection Security SSL/TLS
Same version if I use gmail server with gmail account e-mail.. password
is not asked for
This all started with the ugrade to 2.26.1 prior to that all was fine .
Just out of curiosity, could you try toggling
"network.auth.force-generic-ntlm" in about:config and see if that helps.
Toggling it helped me with a login problem on a web site earlier today.
If it doesn't help, just reset it.
@WaltS48: I would recommend against having a user toggle ntlm to 'true'
unless they actually know what it is for. And even then I'd not
recommend it be left at that setting.

Further, I seriously doubt that yahoo uses ntlm on their SMTP servers.
It was just a thought since both SeaMonkey and Thunderbird users are
having problems with Yahoo mail.
Solved my openSUSE forum login problem.
