Hi,

You need to provide more information, what is the e-mail client used?

...he sais he just change his password, and this is happening. I


Sound like if he is using an e-mail client (Outlook, Mozilla Thunderbird, Windows Mail, etc.) and need to edit the account properties to insert the new password.

Hi,

I'm not familiarize with the Windows 8 Mail App but check this page it shows how to access the mail account settings to put the new password.

Knowing the account type he use could be also important, gmail, outlook, other and if access by pop3 or IMAP.
