Can the following be explained please.

'There was a problem logging onto your mail server. Your Password was
rejected. Account: 'pop.freeserve.net', Server: 'pop.freeserve.net',
Protocol: POP3, Server Response: '-ERR [AUTH] Invalid login/password
pair', Port: 110, Secure(SSL): No, Server Error: 0x800CCC90, Error
Number: 0x800CCC92'

See if you can log into the account using your email address and password
he

If you can then it is probably a temporary problem?
If not it will tell you why not?

I can get onto the web, but i cannot read any mail. Ive not done anything
at all. Usually when I connect to freeserve I can use web and e-mail. I
was just locked out

I presume that you are getting a password error in Outlook Express when
you try to download mail.

The Invalid password error message can mean that any of the following
are wrong:
- POP3 server name
- Incoming Mail Server Account Name (some require the full e-mail
address , others just want the user part)
- Incoming Mail Server Password (often case sensitive)
- Incorrect use of Secure Password Authentication (SPA) - few severs
use this
- Incorrect use of SSL - few servers use this
- The mail server is having temporary problems
Check these settings in Outlook Express at Tools, Accounts, Mail,
Properties, Servers (Advanced tab for SSL). Check with your mail
service (generally your ISP) for the correct values. If the values seem
correct, retype them and click APPLY. In the event that the account
settings are corrupted in the registry, it might be necessary to delete
the mail account, restart OE and then set up the account again. In some
cases it might be necessary to set up a new identity in OE and create
the mail account there.
