Default Periodic failure of OE6 to function

A recurring problem I'm having is the failutre of OE6 to open and display
e-mail messages online. I'm using and HP MCE 2005 (with Rollup 2), IE7, a
wireless router and Cable modem service and ATT Yahoo (prodigy) ISP. The
accts names and server names are correct and the same is entry screen as well
as in Tools/options/mail/servers etc. Cable service is working fine and
internet is available, but periodically, clicking OE6 does not open and gives
the following:

"There was a problem logging onto your mail server. Your Password was
rejected. Account: 'pop.prodigy.yahoo.com', Server: 'pop.prodigy.yahoo.com',
Protocol: POP3, Server Response: '-ERR [AUTH] invalid user/password', Port:
110, Secure(SSL): No, Server Error: 0x800CCC90, Error Number: 0x800CCC92"

Password is correct;has been verified several times.
I'd appreciate any ideas.
