Hi I have outlook express 6.0 and I have a free pop3 mail on lycos .

I try to open this account using outlook but I can not .
I configured outlook to open my new account i had the steps from lycos help page .
I have each time I open outlook a dialogue box :
Logon – pop.mail.lycos.com
Server: pop.mail.lycos.com
Username :
Password:
I type the user name and the password but outlook can not access to the account and I have this message : There was a problem logging onto your mail server. Your Password was rejected. Account: 'pop.mail.lycos.com', Server: 'pop.mail.lycos.com', Protocol: POP3, Server Response: '-ERR Login failed.', Port: 110, Secure(SSL): No, Server Error: 0x800CCC90, Error Number: 0x800CCC92


I am sure that it is not a password issue because I tried with my yahoo account and I receive the same message ; and another reason that I use outlook to open my main mail account of my web site – and out look logon without asking me to type the user name or the password .

i hope that some one can help me .

thankx
