Incoming for ATT is:  pop.att.yahoo.com   with SSL
Outgoing is: smtp.att.yahoo.com    no security

user name both directions is full email address and password is whatever 
password you use.

I had an issue with my laptop for a short time in Thunderbird because it 
named my ouitgoing connection. As soon as I removed the connection name 
it worked just fine.
