Vista - I CANT GET INCOMING EMAILS- it pops up with username and password?

3 Weeks Ago

If you don't remember your password, then your first order of business
is to contact your mail service provider for help with that.
If you don't know who that is, what is the part of your email address
after the @ symbol?

I went on line help from microsoft technial support got it fixed and resolved
other non related probles allso. back to the isue here. it has to do with
putting the corect servers address in the the acount. TOOLS/accounts/ciick
two times/click servers...
for cox users,
My incoming mail server is a; POP3 server
Incoming mail (POP3): pop.west.cox.net
Outgoing mail (SMTP): smtp.west.cox.net

I was told I could call my server to fix this problem also.
