Outlook 2003, password doesn't save when receiving email

On email accounts I check to save password, but when I hit send/receive it
asks for a password and when I put one in it gives an error. Please advise.
 
And the error would be...? Are the accounts using the same POP3 server?

Here's the error: Task 'Doug Price - Receiving' reported error (0x800CCC92)
: 'Your e-mail server rejected your login. Verify your user name and
password in your account properties. Under Tools, click E-mail accounts.
The server responded: -ERR Too few arguments for the pass command.'

They are using the same POP3 server.

The password appears to be defined incorrectly or not at all.
 
That's the thing in the email accounts the passwords are entered correctly
and checked to save, but when I hit send/receive it asks for the password
which comes up blank.
 
It won't save the password until it succesfully logs in to the email
server one time. Check with your email provider to verify you are using
the correct password.
 
I am using the correct password, I made sure with the provider. The password
doesn't save in the email accounts. If I reboot the computer and go back
into outlook and check the account the password is blank.
