Good thinking, but the parts of the settings that are visible in Thunderbird I entered exactly the same in Evolution. I am starting to suspect that Yahoo for some reason have decided to block connections from anything but Outlook or Thunderbird as they specifically say on their help page that these were the clients one could use to access yahoo mail using a pop server.

Anyways, since I've set up Thunderbird now I consider this thread as solved. Thunderbird is free software and available through the Trisquel repsositories so I'm fine. thanks your help
