Opening Outlook

I just set up my outlook. Everytime I open it to check messages I get this
error message
Account: 'POP3', Server: 'POP3', Protocol: POP3, Server Response: '-ERR
[AUTH] Authentication failed', Port: 110, Secure(SSL): No, Server Error:
0x800CCC90, Error Number: 0x800CCC92
Also the security window pops to ask for my user name and password. I enter
the correct information and it just keeps poppong up again, I get this
everytime I open my mail.

Re: Opening Outlook

That doesn't look like an Outlook error message. It looks like a
Windows Mail error message. Always be careful about specifying the
correct program name, because it can make a big difference.

"POP3" is not a valid mail server name. You get the correct server names
and settings from your mail service provider. If you don't know who that is,
what is the part of your email address after the @ symbol?
