For two days I have been unable to access Mail email but get message to try again in an hour. I think AT&T is deleting old old email data but that has nothing to do with more recent and current email; moreover I use the Apple Mail app abd internet access via Yahoo. What's going on? I need to get this work SENT - already lost a day!
iMac, macOS 10.13
In the interim sign in to yahoo.com to use the WebMail fature.
Mac's Mail App is not as modern as iOS's Mail app, Many eMail providers now require a separate App Password different from your eMail password…
Yahoo has gone to this too...

Yahoo App password…
Generate and manage third-party app passwords
Some older, third-party email apps (that do not use our Yahoo branded sign in page) require you to enter a single password for login credentials. To access your Yahoo Mail account on these apps, you'll need to generate and use an app password. An app password is a long, randomly generated code that gives a non-Yahoo app permission to access your Yahoo account. You’ll only need to provide this code once to sign in to your third-party email app.

Helpful, but my version was current. I wound up changing password with help of ATT. Thanks for responding.
Great to hear my friend, take care!
