Email account

[Brian]

Hi Steve hi Everyone !

My 2nd machine running W2k is now connected to the
internet thanks to Steve's site. I tried to create email
account for my W2k as I am allowed by my ISP to 5 email
accounts. I went to the Outlook Express. From
Tools > Accounts > Mail > Add... I created an account.
Now when I sent an email to my Wxp, it's fine. But I
can't receive any email. A password request dialog box
keeps poping up and at the end I get the error message:

"There was a problem logging onto your mail server. Your
password was rejected." It goes on to add: "Server
error: 0x800CCC90, Error Number: 0x800CCC92"

And yes I used an inimaginable user name account.

Can you or anyone else please help?

Brian

Did you set up the new account (id) on the ISP?

Hope this is useful to you. Let us know.
