After you resolve your account status with Cox, you should change
your antivirus, since it may be corrupting your password store.
Windows Mail is not compatible with most McAfee or Norton
security programs. Those will need to be uninstalled, not just disabled.

After uninstalling your non-compatible antivirus, download
and install a more compatible antivirus like the free Avast:

Even compatible antivirus programs will need to have their
email scanning option turned off. For more on this topic see

Contact your email provider.

"Babs" 1. If you are asking to change your password to MATCH what you have
already set up with your provider, then this is done in: Tools >
Accounts... > Click on you account in Mail section > Properties > Servers.
Then set your Password.

2. If you are asking to change your password that is already set at the
provider, then go to your mail provider's Personal Preferences page on the
WEB and change it there. Then go to 1.
