| Guest | 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? |

| Guest | Re: Windows Vista Mail asking for logon information now 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. http://get.live.com/wlmail/overview Email scanning in any antivirus must be disabled, for reasons explained here: http://thundercloud.net/infoave/tuto...ning/index.htm -- Gary VanderMolen, MS-MVP (Mail) "Madshade" <Madshade@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:010B15EA-6E37-4972-904B-7FA5C43E431C@xxxxxx

| Guest | RE: Windows Vista Mail asking for logon information now 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. "Madshade" wrote:
