I use Windows Live Mail as my email program. I receive my Verizon email in Windows Live. Yesterday I started having problems receiving and sending emails. When I first sign in, I get the log on window asking me to verify the user name and password. When I click cancel, the following error message appears:
Unable to send or receive messages for the Verizon **** account. An incorrect password was entered. The next time you send or receive messages, you'll be asked to enter your user name and password for this account.
Server Error: 0x800CCC90
Server Response: -ERR [AUTH] (#AUTH012) Incorrect username or password.
Server: 'incoming.yahoo.verizon.net'
Windows Live Mail Error ID: 0x800CCC92
Protocol: POP3
Port: 995
Secure(SSL): Yes
I can access my emails through webmail but I have two accounts and it seems a hassle to have to login and out each account. I contacted Verizon and they said it's a Microsoft problem, something to do with Yahoo.
Checking the Verizon Community Forum, this issue has occurred many times before.
I have not found anything online regarding a problem with Windows Live. I was wondering if there is some website where I can search.
Thanks.
