The error is more specific ... (deleting the POP3 account does not appear
to
mave made a difference)

Header download for the '[Gmail]' folder did not complete. The operation
was
canceled by the user. Account: 'imap.gmail.com', Server: 'imap.gmail.com',
Protocol: IMAP, Server Response: 'Invalid credentials u26if3100669mug.0',
Port: 993, Secure(SSL): Yes, Error Number: 0x800C006F

I have found that my login details were missing from the account property
settings and that the Outgoing SMTP port (under Advanced tab) reverted to
its
default of '25' instead of '465' as advised in Gmails support
documentation.

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.
