After I type in the correct info, the same window appears and asks for username and password, again and again without allowing me to send or receive email. What is going on and how can I resolve this issue?
View 9 Replies View RelatedWindows Mail has suddenly started asking me for a user name and password to deliver messages from Outbox. It has never done this before in the previous 9 months. Checked the settings in Tools / Accounts / Server Tab. Entered the user name / password as per the Server Tab but the box keeps on appeating again and I can't send email out using Windows mail. I can receive emails.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI have noticed that this topic has been posted more than once and I have read some of them. I have removed Norton Internet Security 2009. I have removed my e-mailaccounts and reset them. I have reinstalled Norton and nothing works. Everytime I want receive and/or send mail, Windows Mail asks for my username and password. Even when Norton wasn't installed Windows Mail didn't remember, so I don't think Norton is causing this problem.

My wife's and my mail files have been active for a year through our local Road Runner provider. now suddenly today "Windows Security" is requiring that we provide our usernames and passwords to be allowed to get to our mailboxes. Is this a Windows mail issue or a Road Runner mailbox issue?

View 8 Replies View RelatedI am having problems with Windows mail all of a sudden. I am running Vista, as well as Norton antivirus. I updated my Norton this morning and then went to check my e-mail. I was asked for my username and password (that doesn't usually happen), and then it would not accept my username and password. The error message that I receive says:'-ERR mailbox for [my e-mail address] is not available', Port: 995, Secure(SSL): Yes, Server Error: 0x800CCC90, Error Number: 0x800CCC92. I went into Norton and changed incoming and outgoing mail from "secure" to ignored, and I restarted my computer.

I have given the correct one each time, but it just phases out and pops back up querying again. Who do I talk to regarding finding out what the username password are>?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI've got a problem whereby when I try to access mail using Windows Mail, the programme pops up a window (entitled Windows Security) which asks for my user name and password... but it doesn't accept these when I enter them. Windows Mail had been working OK up until this started to happen yesterday. I have tried clicking tools, then accounts then properties and then re-entering the correct password and user name (ie the password and user name that I use to access the Internet... which, incidentally, still works OK for
Internet access)... but it still doesn't accept them. Everytime I try to send or receive email and enter the password and user name in the Windows Security window ... the window appears again and asks for them again.
I have been using Windows Mail for about 1 week. Today when I tried to get my mail I was asked for USERNAME and PASSWORD. When I set up Windows Mail i was never asked to establish Username or Password. Now I can't get my mail.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI just set up Windows Mail for my wife to use on our new computer. I need the email to be pretty secure. We want it to require a password to see any emails, old or new, is that possible? The way it is now it asks for a password but if you hit cancel it still displays all the old email. This wont work because she has confidential client info on here.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a general problem with Windows Vista , the following being an example I would like to solve. When opening Windows Mail, or when I try to send mail, Windows Security has asked me for no apparent reason to ?Please verify that both the username and password are correct for your mail server.? I gave it the information hit OK and the original request reappeared and kept reappearing even though I tried every combination of both I could remember with Caps Lock disabled. Either I have a fault or, in my senility, I have forgotten either or both. Either way Windows Mail does not offer me a solution. This is a serious problem as, although I can receive mail, I cannot send.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI tried to respond to an extremely old thread, and couldn't because of that. So I am reposting here as others may have the same concern.dannygallo;756753 Wrote: I agree with Danny. One shouldn't have to create a separate user account for Windows just to keep prying eyes from checking out email. That would be analogous to giving each person who lives in the same household a separate room with a lock and key with his/her own phone in it. It's generally accepted courtesy not to eavesdrop on others' conversations.
However, when spouses wish to share their user account and profile, but simply wish to keep their email exchanges a bit more confidential (yes, even from each other), this is no longer possible. It seems very unloving to mandate that two people in a relationship must completely isolate their home computer work spaces with usernames and private passwords, simply because they want to keep their email a bit private. So once again, I agree with Danny. Microsoft has a longstanding history of adding useless bells and whistles to programs, so I commend them for making Windows Mail more simple to use, but in this case, it would have been wonderful had they given the user an option to password protect program usage and entry WITHIN the same user profile
is it possible to save Windows Mail with a password? So that nobody can open WinMail without my password. How does it work?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have never had to use a password to get or send messages. Today I logged on after not being on for a week and now windows security is asking for a logon name and password. What the heck happened? I have been slowly downloading the updates and yes I am behind in downloading them. I am on dialup so it takes a while to download them. Is this some type of new security? I don't want to lose the emails I have by setting up a new account.
