Outlook Express rejects password!

[Mike Armstrong]

Out of nowhere OE now gives me an error message and refuses my password WTF?! I haven't changed anything, downloaded anything or installed any new programs. Whwn I click on OE it asks for my password, when I put it in it rejects it and gives this error message...

'There was a problem logging onto your mail server. Your Password was rejected. Account: 'mail', Server: 'pop.att.yahoo.com', Protocol: POP3, Server Response: '-ERR [AUTH] invalid user/password', Port: 995, Secure(SSL): Yes, Server Error: 0x800CCC90, Error Number: 0x800CCC92'

Help! Thanks

wait for your isp to fix their server.
You should also take your support requests for problems like this to your isp.

I did just that and got my password reset. Thanks

I occasionally get exactly the same issue but I wait a few hours and everything works again.
100% uptime isnt guaranteed for non mission critical services.
