Question asked on Jul 13, 2016
I have not been able to receive emails, but I am able to send emails...this has been going on for about a week. I keep getting the following message:

Unable to send or receive messages for the account. Windows Live Mail couldn't log on to the email server using authenticated POP (APOP). Contact your email provider and verify that it supports authenticated POP. To change this logon setting, in the folder list, right-click on the account name, and then click Properties on the shortcut menu. In the Properties dialog, click the Servers tab and then under Incoming Mail Server, select a logon option.

Server: 'pop-server.hawaii.rr.com'
Windows Live Mail Error ID: 0x80004005
Protocol: POP3
Port: 110
Secure(SSL): No

I took the advice of the technician to uninstall and reinstall and it still says this error message.

PLEASE HELP!
