Current/latest Chrome version 57.0.2987.133 and current/latest FF version 52.0.2 with X-Notifier 4.0.2 is checking, recognizing, and notifying my Yahoo account.
You are unlikely to see a 'fix' to X-Notifier since it seems to be working for most users... ...it is more likely a problem in your installation. For troubleshooting...
In Firefox... - With X-Notifier 3.5.23 or older, you can right-click on the X-Notifier envelope icon, then click your yahoo account and see if it logs you into your inbox (if not, check your password in X-Notifier account definition). With X-Notifier 4.0.2, you simply click the X-Notifier envelope icon and then click your yahoo account to see if it logs you into your inbox. - You can open a new tab and manually go to yahoo.com and login to your account to see if there are any prompts that might be interfering with login/checking. - You can disable all your other add-ons and restart Firefox to see if X-Notifier works without them. - You can create a new user profile, add just X-Notifier and manually add just your yahoo account (do not import it) and see if it works. - You can clear cache and cookies.
The X-Notifier developer has been busy with opening a medical clinic... it's unknown when he'll have time to check a logfile if you were to create one, as described in... http://xnotifier.tobwithu.com/dp/node/4
Creating a log file, in more detail:
X-Notifier 3.5.23 and older: 1) Right-click the X-Notifier envelope icon and then hold 'Shift' key and click "Help"... this will enable a logging feature... ( you should see 'Log' on the menu when you open it again). 2) Again right-click the X-Notifier envelope icon and then click "Check now"... and wait until X-Notifier shows 'Not checked' on your account (hover mouse pointer over X-Notifier icon). 3) A third time, right-click X-Notifier envelope icon and then click "Log"... and it will prompt you to save the log file. 4) Create a new email addressed to xndevel@gmail.com, type a polite informative comment... and attach the log file, and send it. When the developer has time, perhaps he can find a problem with your login process in the log file.
X-Notifier 4.0.2:
1) You simply click the X-Notifier envelope icon, then hold 'Shift' key and click "Help"... to enable the logging feature... ( you should see 'Log' on the menu when you open it again). 2) Again click the X-Notifier envelope icon and then click "Check now"... and wait until X-Notifier shows your account is 'not checked' (it will be shown in red when you later click the X-Notifier icon after the 'Check now' cycle has been completed.) 3) A third time, click X-Notifier envelope icon and then click "Log"... and it will prompt you to save the log file. 4) Create a new email addressed to xndevel@gmail.com, type a polite informative comment... and attach the log file, and send it. When the developer has time, perhaps he can find a problem with your login process in the log file.

Perhaps not an X-Notifier fault...
Just FYI...
You are unlikely to see a 'fix' to X-Notifier since it seems to be working for most users...
...it is more likely a problem in your installation. For troubleshooting...
In Firefox...
- With X-Notifier 3.5.23 or older, you can right-click on the X-Notifier envelope icon, then click your yahoo account and see if it logs you into your inbox (if not, check your password in X-Notifier account definition).
With X-Notifier 4.0.2, you simply click the X-Notifier envelope icon and then click your yahoo account to see if it logs you into your inbox.
- You can open a new tab and manually go to yahoo.com and login to your account to see if there are any prompts that might be interfering with login/checking.
- You can disable all your other add-ons and restart Firefox to see if X-Notifier works without them.
- You can create a new user profile, add just X-Notifier and manually add just your yahoo account (do not import it) and see if it works.
- You can clear cache and cookies.
