I keep receiving the following error message. I put the same ID and
password as in tools properies "There was a problem logging onto your mail
server. Your Password was rejected. Account: 'pop.starband.net', Server:
'pop.starband.net', Protocol: POP3, Server Response: '-ERR Could not
determine server', Port: 110, Secure(SSL): No, Server Error: 0x800CCC90,
Error Number: 0x800CCC92

Has this account ever worked in OE?

Let's start with the obvious:

...Your Password was rejected.

Are you certain the PW is correct? Is it the same PW you use to sign in at
http://www.starband.net/memberlogin.asp ?

Is the account correctly configured in OE? =

Disable email scanning by your anti-virus application. It provides no
additional protection and even Symantec says it's not necessary:

QP
Disabling Email Scanning does not leave you unprotected against viruses that
are distributed as email attachments. Norton AntiVirus Auto-Protect scans
incoming files as they are saved to your hard drive, including email and
email attachments. Email Scanning is just another layer on top of this. To
make sure that Auto-Protect is providing the maximum protection, keep
Auto-Protect enabled and run LiveUpdate regularly to ensure that you have
the most recent virus definitions.

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)
*** the error message suggests that the full e-mail addresses is needed
and if you have entered that, there is a typo in it. ***
- 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.
