request for my username and password. After typing this in it will the
request will come up again. Canceling out of this loop makes it come up

POP3, Server Response: ' Disconnect because authentication to back
server is too long', Port: 110, Secure(SSL): No, Server Error:

I'm not sure what I did but I finally got mine to work, and am now able to
download my e-mail I did go to my Nortons and under Firewall procesing I hit
page default so not sure if that had anything to do with it or not, all I do
know is I have spent all day on this computer trying to get it fixed.

I can guarantee that you will have future problems with Windows Mail
if you keep Norton on your PC.

Get rid of Norton before you get a bigger issue. Small warning today

it's always fixed itself (eventually)

Ok, now i'm getting these error messages. Is it anything to do with the
antivirus (Norton) and if so what can I do about it?

It could well be Norton anti pc software.
Uninstall it and use a Vista compatible product like

Email scanning should be turned off in any anti-virus. Also exclude EML
files from the scan. It provides no
protection not provided by the regular resident protection.
Besides that, McAfee and Norton are not compatible with Windows Mail and
should be uninstalled.
