... I get the error message that my password is incorrect.

The only clue we have to what's wrong is the error message. Please click on it to select it, then use right-click to copy it and paste it into your reply here. 

Hi,

This sounds identical to the problem I am also having. It started June 1st and I have been spending countless hours trying to resolve it. I can send and receive in verizon webmail and the other two accounts I have still work, for some reason with this particular account (my primary account btw) I am suddenly being asked for the user name and password, when entered, I am asked again.

Here is the error message:

Unable to send or receive messages for the Verizon (steelefm) account. An incorrect password was entered. The next time you send or receive messages, you'll be asked to enter your user name and password for this account.

Server Error: 0x800CCC90
Server Response: -ERR [AUTH] Authentication failed
Server: 'incoming.verizon.net'
Windows Live Mail Error ID: 0x800CCC92
Protocol: POP3
Port: 110
Secure(SSL): No

Please help! I already removed the account and added it again (I wish I didn't, I lost everything I had in folders) and that didn't help.

Kari
