We have an older iMac running High Sierra and suddenly are unable to send email using a Yahoo account set up in Mac Mail. I noticed that the outgoing mail account is shown as offline but I can't get it online. Oddly when I go to the "edit SMTP server list" dialog under server settings there are no accounts listed - it is just blank. I noticed the same thing on our other, more recent iMac running Catalina, but Yahoo outgoing mail works from that computer.

Does anyone have any suggestions? Note that I have already deleted the Yahoo account and re-added it to no avail.

Thanks for any help.

EDIT: Got it worked out. There was an issue on Yahoo's end.
