Windows Live Mail is longer sending/receiving email from my gmail or zoho accounts.  I have deleted these and recreated them to try to solve the problem, without success. The gmail account password agrees with the one in the WLM dialogue box. When I attempted to download from gmail, got this message:

Unable to send or receive messages for the Gmail (dkgadoury) 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] Application-specific password required: https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/185833

Server: 'pop.gmail.com'

Windows Live Mail Error ID: 0x800CCC92

Protocol: POP3

Port: 995

Secure(SSL): Yes

This has happened to me before.  How do I solve it?
