Username/password error on my account only
I administer an Exchange2003 environment and wanted to also allow POP3
access, so I enabled that on the server. Now, I can set up any other users to receive their email via POP3 in Outlook Express with no problems - they get it just fine. But on my account only, (all settings exactly the same as the others, even on the same computer), I keep getting: There was a problem logging onto your mail server. Your Password was rejected. Account: (My Account), Server: 'exchange.(mydomain).com', Protocol: POP3, Server Response: '-ERR Logon failu unknown user name or bad password.', Port: 110, Secure(SSL): No, Server Error: 0x800CCC90, Error Number: 0x800CCC92 I've double checked all my settings on both the server and client end, (full domain admin rights), and can find nothing different than the other users. Any ideas on what else to check? Anti-Virus makes no difference. Thanks for any suggestions. John |

Username/password error on my account only
I would remove the account from Exchange and OE and then add it back again.
See also if you can telnet to the exchange server. steve "John Schmidt" wrote in message ...

Username/password error on my account only
I can telnet the server and it accepts my username but not the password.
Odd, because the password is valid and works for everything else connected with my account. I'm not going to worry about it too much - creating my own pop3 access was only for testing purposes. As long as pop3 is working for those that need it, I'm OK... John "Steve Cochran" wrote in message ... I would remove the account from Exchange and OE and then add it back again.

Outlook Express and Outlook repeatedly prompt you for your password with

That indicates its not an OE issue then.

But, that's your decision obviously. You can repair it at your leisure now, or maybe later under a lot more pressure from a user. I'd start by deleting and recreating the errant account just in case it's corrupted, and then go from there. Just my 2 cents Pop` |
