Thank you for the detailed and easy instructions on this conversion to Yahoo and Thunderbird!! Your process seems easy and when it is my time I hope it goes as well...I have only received one email from Cox as yet. I was wondering if you could TEST this process with one of the several email accounts I have with Cox when I am notified by Cox to do so but NOT the original main email account? Another reply to this solution said they did the MAIN account and ALL the accounts went over to Yahoo.
Another question is--can you use the SAME password for Yahoo when you are asked to create a new password? Just would be so much easier.
Thank you for any help you can give to make this transition to easier that the horror stories I have read about.
I think that would depend on how "strong" your original password is. I tried the same password and Yahoo said it wasn't strong enough, so I had to come up with another. Two special characters, numbers and capital letters and 16 characters total for Yahoo to decide if it was strong enough.
