That means that the xtras pop mail server was busy & that you cant login to it, try doing it again, if you get the same error message post back here

also make sure your username/password is correct

Hope this helps

Don't see where the error leads to that conclusion actually.

You more likely have have Secure Password Authentication turned on and the ISP's server does not require it.

In OE, Tools - Accounts - select the extra POP 3 account - Properties - Servers - untick "log in using Secure Password Authentication"

Only a guess, as I don't use OE....

238953 2004-05-24 07:11:00 This is a very clever message to you in code from the supplier of all that meths and MSG you put in the wine.

He says that, apparently tests in the backstreets of Santiago have shown an encouragingly high survival rate. The next shipment is due in Lyttleton next week. :D

238955 2004-05-24 07:17:00 Sold out of that activity,hence no compu till Oct.
Now thats a code.

238956 2004-05-24 07:47:00 Actually Winston, the code deciphers as "the results of the test suggest that the horse should be shot".

Glad to help Y_T
