Lately I have noticed that both my yahoo accounts come up with "failed to log into....." errors. When I click on the notification it says the servers password has changed. However if I login to the same accounts on my laptop I can get right in.

I have clicked show password and insure 100% that all is entered correctly. What boggles me is that it will work for days then just stop working and then start working randomly.

Thoughts? Cell connection related?
 
The problem is still there with yahoo but I am not totally sure it is a yahoo problem. I found by installing the yahoo email app, the problem of accessing my emails is gone. It is interesting though, since while reading my emails in the app, at the same time I am still getting notificatons of login errors for the phone's email client.
