switching oe to windows mail

I can't switch my e-mail from OE to WM. I keep getting an error message
that POP3 account is incorrect. How do I correct this problem?

Re: switching oe to windows mail

It should work fine if you get all the POP3 information right. You're sure
you typed the incoming and outgoing server addresses correctly (no @ signs
or anything like that in them?). How about things like the "server requires
authentication", you got all that right?

Re: switching oe to windows mail

That refers to the outgoing mail server.
The OP only mentioned a problem with the incoming mail server.
