Hi Blair,

"Password is incorrect" is not usually wrong, I would have him check for
correct case, and also whether or not the account requires authentication.

It is also possible that there is trouble at the mail server, checking
with
the provider may help clear it up.

I have a friend who has the following problem
Uses\XP with Wanadoo broddband.
Connects to the Internet ok with Internet Explorer.
I visited him to check his settings on Outlook Express and all appeared
OK.
A fault report appears each time which says that the password is
incorrect
Knowing windows messages I know they do not necessarily reflect the
actual
fault.
I have deleted the password each time and put in the correct one but I
am
wondering if the password is protected from change and perhaps requires
another method of changing this
Any ideas please ?
Blair
