Fair enough. IDK if you could (or would want to) require a newer
version of gnutls with the fix for these Yahoo (Verizon and AOL) IMAP
servers.

Thanks, Paul. Rusty as I am, finally got it working again. 

gnutls-cli 3.6.14

/usr/local/bin/gnutls-cli

echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH
/usr/local/lib:/lib:/usr/lib

This last bit, because Ubuntu doesn't include local libs by default,
IIUC. Not sure if it's exactly proper, but:

grep LD_L .bashrc 
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/usr/local/lib:/lib:/usr/lib"

If this helps anyone else, yay! If anyone thinks I've made a mistake,
please let me know. On Ubuntu 18.04.4 LTS

Cheers,
