Vista - Windows Vista Mail asking for logon information now

Can't use Windows Mail without logging into server. This just started this
morning.


A windows security pop up window with username and password confirmation and
checkbox for remembering both pops up now. If you check remember my
credentils it still won't remember and will ask you again. It has nothing to
do with your ISP.


Any suggestions?

If you are sure you are you are entering the correct username and
password, one possible cause for that error is account corruption.
One thing you should try as a quick fix is to delete that corrupted
mail account, restart Windows Mail, then recreate that account.

If that doesn't fix it, more drastic measures will have to be taken.
Which antivirus are you running?
As a minimum, email scanning in the antivirus must be turned off,
although that may not be sufficient to eliminate all bad effects.
In a worst case scenario, your antivirus may need to be uninstalled.

If turning off the email scanning function does not resolve your problem,
consider upgrading to Windows Live Mail, because it is less prone to
suffering bad effects from overly aggressive antivirus programs.

Email scanning in any antivirus must be disabled, for reasons

I recently helped a friend with the same problem so I hope the following
information will help you…..

Open up your windows mail, click on tools and then accounts, highlight the
mail server you use (I.g pop.ntlworld.com) then click on properties and it
opens another window, click on servers and make sure all the details you have
for setting the account up are correct, then make sure the remember password
is ticked, “log on using secure password authentication� should be empty (not
ticked), then make sure “outgoing mail server� is ticked, then go into box
marked settings (on the same page) the box that says USE SAME SETTINGS AS MY
INCOMING MAIL SERVER should be ticked if not tick it, then click OK then
APPLY then OK again, close internet accounts window and you should be able to
use the windows mail without the hassle.

Good Luck and let me know if this works.
