All of a sudden Outlook Express is asking for a password. I never used one before and don't know what it is so I can't access my mail. It says authorizing and then goes to the log on.Can you help please.

Is this the one for opening OE or the password for the server OE is trying to get your mail from? If last one, might return to the account set up for the mail account and go through setting the PW again. Make sure "Remember password" is still checked. Or delete the account and set it up again in case the files haven't become corrupted. It could just be a problem with the server end. Can you access the account online with same PW?

The host 'woh.rr.com' could not be found. Please verify that you have entered the server name correctly. Account: 'woh.rr.com', Server: 'woh.rr.com', Protocol: POP3, Port: 110, Secure(SSL): No, Socket Error: 11001, Error Number: 0x800CCC0D

I deleted and set up a new account and password. I no longer get asked for my password but still get this error message. Might this be an IP problem or could I have some thing configured wrong? Thanks

Problem Solved. I somehow had the wrong incoming address. I don't remember changing it but who knows. Thanks
