My smtp account is 'smtp.att.yahoo.com'.  I do not use the provided Yahoo 
account provided by the ISP, nonetheless, this address has worked for four 
years + for me and is the only address they provide for my account.  It first 
happened when ATT became owner.

I have worked through other kmail and Thunderbird problems and after fixing the 
problems kmail worked fine, and it always had the address smtp.att.yahoo.com - 
before, after and still.  Any other ideas?  Thanks!
