A couple of days ago my computer just stopped receiving and sending e-mails.
I found an article 196613 in help and support and it looks like it's exaclty the problem I'm having, but I am unable to fix it. When I hit the send/receive button all I get is your password was rejected, etc. Then this box pops up with my name and a password. If I say OK or just delete it it just pops up again. What is going on here? Thank you. |

It didn't look like my computer sent you my reply to your post so I'm going
to send it again in case it didn't: There was a problem logging onto your mail server. Your Password was rejected.

Call Charter and have them check your account settings. They may wish to
reset your password. -- Bruce Hagen MS-MVP Outlook Express Imperial Beach, CA "snakysmom" wrote in message ...

Charter DID reset my password and it still wouldn't work. I can pull my mail
when I'm in their website but I can't pull it in OE. "Bruce Hagen" wrote: Call Charter and have them check your account settings.

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, but it's becoming more common - The mail server is having temporary problems - Anti-Virus scanning e-mail or anti-spam program interfering with the mail server logon 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. -- Mike - http://pages.prodigy.net/michael_santovec/techhelp.htm "snakysmom" wrote in message ...
