OK. The relevant error is:
POP3_STREAM_WRITE (15):
PASS xxxxxxxx
POP3_STREAM_LINE (22): '+OK password required.'
Got + response
POP3_STREAM_LINE (47): '-ERR [SYS/TEMP] internal server error (#IS6532)'
POP3_STREAM_WRITE (26):
USER jonr...@pacbell.net
Evolution is reporting an error because the Yahoo servers are giving an
error. This isn't an Evolution problem as such - except in that when an
error occurs, Evolution assumes it's an authentication problem and
immediately prompts for a password. (The difference with something like
Thunderbird is that it retries with the same password and it usually
works the second time - hence it looks like everything is OK with
another MUI.)
There are lots of people complaining about this error on Yahoo driven
systems (such as AT&T, Pacbell, BT etc.) without much evidence of a
solution (try Googling for "yahoo mail is6532"). The only place I've
seen that claims a solution is:
http://www.emailquestions.com/isp-free-email-support-forums/9255-fix-err-sys-temp-internal-server-error-is6532.html
which implies that you need to use SSL for POP (i.e. POPS on port 995).
So check your settings to make sure that's what you are using.
