CAPITAL LETTERS. Some require you to follow it with the part of your
email address that starts with @, and some require you not to do this. Many
don't treat CAPITAL LETTERS in your password as being the same as the
matching lowercase letters. Many give unclear error messages about what's
wrong with your username and/or password if anything is.

If you've never used a password before, you may need to use a blank line
as your password.

Passwords are, usually, case sensitive. Email addresses are not, though at
least one service chokes on capital letters in an email address.

Unfortunately, I don't have Frontiernet as a provider, and no clue about any
changes they may have made. You should ask their help desk.

The Invalid password error message can mean that any of the following
are wrong:
- POP3 server name
- Incoming Mail Server E-mail User Name (some require the full e-mail
address user@xxxxxx, others just want the user part)
- Incoming Mail Server Password (often case sensitive)
- Incorrect use of Secure Password Authentication (SPA) or APOP - few
severs use this
- Incorrect use of SSL - few servers use this, but it's becoming more
common
- The mail server is having temporary problems
- Anti-Virus scanning e-mail or anti-spam program interfering with the
mail server logon
Check these settings in Windows Live Mail at Tools, Accounts, Mail,
Properties, Servers (Advanced tab for SSL). Check with your mail
service (generally your ISP) for the correct values. If the values seem
correct, retype them and click APPLY.
