After several years with one ISP, I had to switch to a new one when my
previous ISP changed management and started giving crappy service. So
I setup a new account with all the pertinent information and each
time I try to get my email from the new server I keep getting the
message that "There was a problem logging onto your mail server. Your
Password was rejected." It also keeps asking for my password even
after I had typed it in quite a few times. Does anybody know if this
is a problem with OE6 or a problem with the ISP? I really hate setting
up new accounts.

Well, I tried editing the Registry a couple of times, but no joy: I'm
still being asked for my username and password, and I get the
following error message: "There was a problem logging onto your mail
server. Your Password was rejected. Account:
'Dslnorthwest.net', Server: 'incoming.dslnorthwest.net', Protocol:
POP3, Server Response: '-ERR Login failed.', Port: 110, Secure(SSL):
No, Server Error: 0x800CCC90, Error Number: 0x800CCC92

The ISP is DSL Northwest.net.

The ISP, by the way, is DSL Northwest.net.
