I have just installed Outlook using Office XP Standard on a Win 2000 system. The Problem I have is that everytime I try to send and recieve email I get a password logon to the POP server. We are running a peer to peer network with no Exchange server and no passwords for logging onto email. I have tried using the net logon password but that doesn't work and when I remove any password that might be in the incoming mail password field that does not seem to do any good either. i have even triedto set a password and the Logon won't accept that. I am stumped

Who controls the pop server? Is anybody else having any problem getting their email? Check your email profile settings against the settings of other users who aren't having problems. It sounds like the pop server thinks there is a password needed.

call your ISP. Ask them for your pop server,
and exact username and password. Trust
me.

I actually control the pop server and no changes that I know of were made on it. The problem started yesterday, only one other person has had this come up and he actually figured out the password needed to get his mail. The only other thing that might have changed installing this Office XP Standard but the other client did not have anything installed. I am sure it is probably something small that was just overlooked but I set this machine up like I have set everyone elses.
