I have Outlook Express on Windows XP opertaing system.

I attempted to create a new Mail account in Outlook
Express. I already have multiple accounts, 5 to be exact,
2 from charter.net and 3 from flash.yahoo.net. I created a
new one, and I cannot recieve mail from that account. When
I go to Recieve Mail, and it gets to 'Authorizing' a LOGON
screen comes up with the server address, User Name, which
was entered, and password, which was also entered, and
the 'Remember Password' box was greyed out. When I
hit 'OK', it just keeps coming up and will not let me
advance. When I hit cancel, the errors screen says

"There was a problem logging onto your mail server. Your
Password was rejected. Account: 'POP.charter.net (2)',
Server: 'pop.charter.net', Protocol: POP3, Server
Response: '-ERR invalid user name or password.', Port:
110, Secure(SSL): No, Server Error: 0x800CCC90, Error
Number: 0x800CCC92"

What is this? Ive never had this problem with my other
accounts. What can I do differently?
 
Are you sure that you have entered the user name and password correctly?
Some combinations are case sensitive (i.e. ABC is not the same as abc)

Worth checking - is often something stupid and simple!

Paul.
