The RFC error message is informational only and is something I get on every use of the Yahoo add-on. It is not causing errors - all of my Yahoo messages are being received without problem.
"Sometimes" additional errors are suspect and may, as Chris suggests, represent something that needs to be cleared in the Web interface. However, you may be the "canary in the coalmine" encountering a new problem that will eventually affect us all. Again, as Chris suggested, the Webmail Author may request logs if this is the case so please take a look at the options of the main Webmail add-on for creating log files. Just a warning ... the log files are quite large so not something you would want (most likely) to just leave running forever.
