There was a problem logging onto your mail server. Your Password was
rejected. Account: 'shawmail.ed.shawcable.net', Server:
'shawmail.ed.shawcable.net', Protocol: POP3, Server Response: '-ERR [AUTH]
Authentication failed', Port: 110, Secure(SSL): No, Server Error: 0x800CCC90,
Error Number: 0x800CCC92


That is what i recieve after setting up a new identity. A box pops up with
my username and a password, but i don't know what the password is or why my
account will not authorize. why wont it work??

This is on Outlook Express-making a new identity

....and you expect the public knows what your password is?

or why my
account will not authorize. why wont it work??

ummm... I don't know my PIN, why can't I get cash from my bank ATM? The same
goes for you, no username/password, no email. Simple as that.

You're in the wrong group.

Sophia: You need to post in an Outlook Express newsgroup...this is for
Outlook, a different program.

Regardless of which is the correct newsgroup, the appropriate next
step is contact your ISP (I'm assuming Shaw Cable). No one in any
newsgroup is going to be able to help you with your authentication;
You need to contact your ISP to straighten out your username /
password confusion.
