Found it. I also needed to remove the smtp server for Yahoo. When 
Thunderbird set up the account, it simply reused the existing 
smtp.mail.yahoo.com server definition. Even when I set that up 
correctly, it wasn't working. However when I deleted it along with the 
pop account, it recreated it from scratch and now it seems to work.

I note that I now have 3 saved passwords for the account:
1) mailbox:// ... for the pop server
2) oauth:// ....
3) smtp:// ...

The passwords are all the same - the very long computer generated one.
