Hi,
The error being returned is actually invalid password.

If you have verified that there are no problems with that, then the other
issue you may want to check is related to the email alias of the user being
different from the login alias, when configuring the user name in Outlook
Express, use DOMAIN\Logon User Id\Mailbox Alias

For example, if my user is jdoe but my email alias is john.Doe, and my
domain is DOMAIN, then I would input my user information in Outlook Express
like this:
DOMAIN\jdoe\John.Doe

Regards,
Damian
