Question about Outlook Express

I have set a Gmail account into Windows Live Mail (WLM).  I did all the setup instructions to the letter.  Incoming mail as IMAP.  When logging into WLM I encounter a message stating:

"Live Mail needs to download the folders before you can read the messages in this account.  To download the folder, click Download.

Clicking Download I get another message:

"The server has rejected your login.  Please verify your username and password is correct.

No matter how many accounts I set up with new Gmail addresses and passwords I get the same message.  The problem seems to be in the server.  What can I do to correct the problem?

My email is intermittently failing to download - I get the error message:

Unable to send or receive messages for the Btinternet account.

Server Error: 0x800CCC90
Server Response: -ERR inactivity timeout
Server: 'mail.btinternet.com'
Windows Live Mail Error ID: 0x800420CD
Protocol: POP3
Port: 110
Secure(SSL): No

Any help would be gratefully received

Original title: Live Mail - inactivity timeout

Or is this an inherent function of WLM?

When I check mail during the day on my smartphone and delete it, I then have to delete the same mail on WLM.  Would rather WLM just present what's on the server every time it checks in for new messages.

Thanks,

Hello,

I use windows live mail to access my email through my windows 8 laptop. 

My email address is ************@tiscali.co.uk  which is part of talktalk

I have no problem receiving emails what so ever but it is when I go to send them that an error message appears.

It is nothing to do with the email address I am sending to or my internet connection. 

Please help me!

Thank You,

Tim Holt
