Roland,
Answers to your questions 1.my outgoing server is at&t (smtp.ameritech.yahoo..com) 2. POP 3.Port 25 (tried 587-doesn't work either)
Secure conncections "No".My incoming server is Terabyte is not a problem. Only Talkback.4. Reinstalled TB 2.0.0.23, tried Beta 3 release 4. Using latest Outlook Express with the same server settings as TB works fine. Yahoo mail (mail.yahoo.com) also works. I am not actually sure what the smtp for that service is.

Thunderbird 2.0.0.23 won't send messages or attach files
TB 2.0.0.23 (with Windows XP) won't send any messages. It spends a long time contacting SMTP and then gives up with an error message. Previous versions didn't give this trouble. Reinstal does not cure problem. Neither does TB 3 Beta 4. Yahoo mail going to the same SMTP works fine.
Also version 23 freezes when you try to attach files.
