is it possible to send e-mail via Yahoo's smtp servers using Thunderbird (78.13.0)?



I've got a Yahoo mail account (among others) that I use for a particular purpose. However it's been a while since I've been able to send e-mail from it using Yahoo's smtp servers. Instead I've been sending e-mail via another smtp server so the "From" address doesn't match the login domain. Gmail apparently now considers that to be sufficient reason to bounce the e-mail so I've been trying to get Thunderbird to use the Yahoo server to send mail for this account.

So far I haven't been able to come up with any combination of settings, including removing the account and recreating it in Thunderbird, that allow the mail to go through.

The messages I get either complain about the password or tell me "An error occurred while sending mail. The mail server responded: Request failed; Mailbox unavailable. Please check the message and try again."

Does anyone have Thunderbird and Yahoo working together?
