will not accept, but just keeps repeating the request. When I check
the password manager, the correct password is there.
Two thoughts:
1) It's been suggested several times in this thread that you confirm WOW's
username requirements for SMTP. Some ISPs want only the prefix (the part
before the "@" sign), and some want the entire email address.
Edit | Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings | Outgoing Server (SMTP)
This will be the last item on the list, after your email accounts.
Double-click the server name in the list on the right, or click it once to
select it and then hit "Edit." At the bottom of the dialog, the last entry is
"User Name:" -- is it exactly what WOW wants? Correct case, correct
punctuation, correct content (prefix only or prefix@domain)?
2) When you check the password manager, are you verifying the POP password
(for receiving mail) instead of the SMTP password? There should be two
distinct entries; be sure you're looking at the right one. And the password
might well be different.
I have the saved password app that connects directly into SM. The password
that I am looking at is labeled smtp so I know that I am looking at the right
one. The pop one is under the WOWxxx.com listing.
