   I'm a NoScript user, but have never interacted with ABE.   
      
   If NoScript is active, then it can be disruptive to mail connections. At   
   the very least, you need to make sure that all of the scripting hosts   
   that Yahoo mail uses have been whitelisted. A good place to start would   
   be to make sure you have whitelisted the Yahoo sites that mail.yahoo.com   
   uses for web access. That would include yahoo.com, yahoo.net, oath.com   
   and yimg.com. The web client also uses googletagmanager, which may be   
   necessary for use there, but probably isn't necessary for POP/IMAP/SMTP   
   from the Seamonkey mail client. I would also whitelist yahooapis.com   
      
   I know that with Microsoft servers and OAuth2, I found that all of the   
   authentication processes that they use take a little bit of effort to   
   find all the necessary servers to whitelist, but I do have that working.   
   But Yahoo's processes are far less complex than what Microsoft is   
   imposing on its users.
