Some email providers require you to enter your username with no spaces and
no
CAPITAL LETTERS. Some require you to follow it with the part of your email
address starting with @, and some require you to leave this off. Many
require
you to use CAPITAL and lowercase letters in the correct places in your
password. Many email providers are rather poor about telling users about
changes
in these rules. Error messages about such problems are often unclear on
exactly
what the problem was.
