Default vista mail password error

Where did you change the password at?

You appear to be using a GMail account. The password would need to be changed at the GMail server website first and then in Windows Mail.

Default vista mail password error

i changed my password at gmail then i changed my password at windows mail.
but, it was still giving me this error. i deleted the account at windows mail
too and even rebooted my computer.

i also tried to create a new account with a dfferent gmail address. same
thing. i was getting a pop-up window always asking for my username and
password. when i type it in it gives me that error. =(

i wonder if it's gmail's problem?
