Using Thunderbird client with Yahoo email?

I am able to receive email but not send with the Thunderbird client. The help page says to use server "plus.smtp.mail.yahoo.com" as the outgoing server, but this does not work. I added my Yahoo username but am repeatedly prompted for the password when trying to send.

Using Thunderbird client with Yahoo email?
For yahoo mail you need upgrade to yahoo mail plus (@ $19.99 per year).to get the full pop3 service for access to Outlook,Incredimail, Thunderbird and others.


For more info on setting up your pop3 account see the link below.

* Incoming Mail Server (POP3): plus.pop.mail.yahoo.com


Use SSL, port: 995


* Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP): plus.smtp.mail.yahoo.com


Use SSL, port: 465, use authentication.
