wrong password????

[rtdavide]

Anybody else have this problem? occasionally it's like Outlook Express
wakes up in the morning and says "nah, i don't like that password
anymore, give me another one!"


today was one of those days. Outlook Express will not let me get my
mail because the password seems to be wrong. Same password as always,
been using it for months/years, but today, outlook thinks it's the
wrong one. Why?


rebooted the computer, checked the mail servers [OK], checked the
website [OK], checked my account [OK]. it seems to be Outlook Express
just doesn't like my password anymore.


anything to do about this? or do i need to go in and really change the
password on my servers?


thanks for any help, it is greatly appreciated.

If those groups aren't carried on the news server that's carrying this group
try using msnews.microsoft.com (MS's public news server that's the source
for all the microsoft.public newsgroups). The links under the newsgroup
references are for use with MS's web newsreader (not exactly the best way to
post but it works for some people)
