   Good suggestions, Richmond, but I have been experiencing the same thing   
   with Yahoo mail over the past couple of days after it having worked for   
   many years (since approx Feb 2018).   
      
   I have made NO CHANGES to my SeaMonkey installation. Yahoo mail just   
   stopped working on Tuesday evening, I think i.e. two days ago ....   
      
   So I am now logging in to my Yahoo account using Firefox. No problems   
   .... so I expect Yahoo has made changes to its system/coding which now   
   causes SeaMonkey to not work with Yahoo mail ..... as so many other   
   sites are failing as well.   
      
   I'm sure the SM Devs are working at it.
