Default The server has rejected your login. Please verify that your us


I should have added that there is no 'error code'. Windows Mail appears to
think it's working just fine and that the mail server it's talking to is
being picky.

I am also having the same exact issue. Coincidence that it's occurring so
suddenly to multiple people where I could find no mention of it previously?

The account I'm having the error on is one of two Gmail accounts (out of
four total accounts in use.

Here's my exact error message track:

1) "Your IMAP server wishes to alert you to the following: Invalid
Credentials (failure)"
2) "The server has rejected your login. Please verify that your username
and password are correct. "
3) Windows Security login dialog: "Logon to Gmail powerbumbler"
4) Repeat 'Ad Nauseum'

It works fine until it doesn't.....

Ok, really frustrated. I've got two emails, both gmail accounts. When I first
set them up everything worked perfect. I know that I have the right port
numbers as directed by gmail, I also know that I have my user name and
password entered correctly. When I open my windows mail it will work just
fine at first, but after having it open for a short time I get these error
messages telling me that "The server has rejected your login. Please verify
that your username and
password are correct" . When it gives me the box to put the information in I
know that I put it in correctly, but the same error pops up over and over.
I'm sure it has to be something with the way it's working with IMAP or
something because I never had this issue with outlook and my pop mail
accounts. If someone could help I would greatly appreciate it. Should I go
back to Mozilla's thunderbird email? Would that be able to handle the IMAP
better? Vista issue maybe? Anyways thanks in advance for any help or
suggestions.
