Thunderbird can now only see the oldest 200 messages in every folder because of problems at Yahoo.

Accessing Yahoo mail - multiple accounts - via IMAP. Suddenly this morning only oldest 200 emails were visible in every folder in every account (including inboxes). I have tried reinstalling Thunderbird and deleting all .msf files, but every rebuild still only accesses the oldest 200 emails.

Login to your Yahoo account via webmail. Are the missing messages still on the server?
