There was a problem logging onto your mail server. Your Password was

These errormessages are intended for confusing users.
Since you didn't (yet) change anything, it says either you have been booted
from yahoo, they changed their policy to only allow paid pop access
(otherwise you have to use www to download your e-mail and see the ads as
well) or finally (just another option) their server is down for
maintainance and you might try tomorrow.
Now all you can do is mess around with your settings until nothing anymore
works
