Hello, I would like to use Yahoo to send patches via git send-email,
but I get the following error:

"5.7.0 (#AUTH005) Too many bad auth attempts."

I have the following configuration:

[sendemail]
    smtpEncryption = ssl
    smtpServer = smtp.mail.yahoo.com
    smtpUser = sakunix at yahoo.com
    smtpServerPort = 465


The error with hotmail is the following:

Password for 'smtp://sakunix@hotmail.com@smtp-mail.outlook.com:587':
5.7.139 Authentication unsuccessful, basic authentication is disabled.
[SA9PR03CA0003.namprd03.prod.outlook.com 2024-10-03T22:12:28.938Z
08DCE3B2AADBD951]

Note: I don't know the reason, but my first test with hotmail did send
the patch.
