can't authenticate in my incoming servers

I just installed a new machine with office 2003 (Outlook 2003 SP2 -
{11..118.8122} ) and in my email accounts I keep getting the message "Outlook
could not connect to the incoming POP3 mail server because the server did not
accept your username or password"

This happens in two different accounts different providers. But I go to the
web base email of my providers and sign-in with the same user name and
password with no problem.

Any suggestions????

Port (POP3)110 and SMTP (25) Timeout 1min
Use the same setting as my incoming email server (Checked)

Often the ports you should be using are not the standard ports. Have you
scanned your ISP's help pages to see if they have any descriptions of how to
set up accounts in Outlook? Many ISPs supply such a description.

Brian;

Perhaps you can help me. I have designed a website for a client who uses
AOL. She wants to set her mail up in Outlook using the e-mail address from
her domain name. I can't even begin to figure out what her incoming and
outgoing mail servers should look like

The AOL settings? Google is your friend.
