email just stopped working

Like the title says, my yahoo account just stopped syncing and so I removed it. I have tried numerous times to re-establish the account, but it keeps telling me I have an incorrect username or password. Just to be clear, I did a manual setup where you add the needed characters for the IMAP and SMTP boxes. I am currently on Rubix 1.9.7 with the blue GB theme installed.

SSL Security

Mine Yahoo email stopped syncing as well on 2/16/2011. On a hunch I changed the incoming mail security to use SSL on port 993. That fixed it for me.

SSL Security - UPDATE

After enabling SSL for my Yahoo email account today, I can now send and receive Yahoo email while on WiFi. This has never worked before.
