Oops, sorry for the multi-posts.  It's a Yahoo screw-up (my replies are
sent through their SMTP server).  Recently they required a password
change, but gave no notification about it.  Just every attempt to post
would fail with a useless error message.

It wasn't until I tried logging into their web portal that I found I was
forced to change passwords.  Then I had the fun and games of trying to
put the new password into Evolution.  But thanks to the bad error
message, Evolution didn't prompt me to enter a password, gave me no way
to change the old one it was trying to use, and it just kept failing to
send.  Gawd I hate service providers who're shit at their jobs.

Boilerplate:  All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted, there is
no point trying to privately email me, I only get to see the messages
posted to the mailing list.

Damn, I didn't mean to press *that* button!
