Default Email not connecting anymore

I have several email accounts hooked up to my Palm Pre 2 (one google and 2 yahoo). And until the other day, they all worked fine. Then out of nowhere one of the yahoo ones stops getting mail. So I tried restarting the phone. And then changing my password on yahoo and resetting up the account, and now what I have found is that when I tried to delete my yahoo email off of my phone to reenter it, I can't reenter it. I get "unknown error" every time and can't sign in. Is there something that I can do about this?

Did you try doing a full restart after deleting the account before trying to add it back onto the device?

Are you on wifi when you get this error? If not I would make sure you have a wifi connection and try it again...

Are you able to access this Yahoo account via computer with your new username & password?

yes I am. Just not on the palm, and all my other email accounts work on it.
