Constantly asking for Password to POP3

Guest

Suddenly, Outloox started asking for my password. this started just today
for some reason. I have to give it each and every time I want to get my
Email. My service (Yahoo DSL) says it's a problem with Outlook. Is it?

I can see by the number of 1-entry posts that this newsgroup is pretty dead.
Loads of problems, but nobody is willing/able to help anyone. I thought MS
monitored these newsgroups fairly well but I guess I was wrong.

MS does not monitor this group. It is a peer to peer group.
Most of the posts that go unanswered do so because the answer has already
been given innumerable times or the inquiry contains too little information
to provide a guess.
Both appear to be the case with your post.

Well, Gee. Thanks a ton, old bean. You have a nice day too.

PS: When you are as old as I am AND you are on dial-up, you don't have enough
time to wait for each past page to load to see if yout question has already
been asked. In any case, most questions don't have the subject in them
anyway and you have to open them to find out what they contain. Shame on
you, sir. You are an MVP and can't even give an answer without flaming the
person?

Oh come on. You thought that was flaming?
All I did was point out that you provided none of the information that would
be necessary to solve your problem and that countless other posts exist that
address an identical problem.
The "simple" solution for you would depend on your Outlook version, your
operating system, and a more accurate description of the steps that produced
your problem--none of which you have provided. That is the reason your post
went unanswered and will remain so.
If you think MVP's are here to read your mind and spoon-feed exactly the
information that only you require, then you do not understand how Usenet
works. Here is a good place to learn:

That's what Google Groups is for.

Russ' response was certainly no flame.
