Brett, this is what Mail does if your mailbox is offline when it
tries to check.
Probably just means Bigpond mail was down at the time of the check.
If you Ctl click your mail box, take it back online, then check mail
again, it will probably be fine.

Hi All,
Using Mail I have suddenly been presented with a dialog box asking
me to re enter my password for the account "Brett's email". It
states "The POP server "mail.bigpond.com" rejected the password for
user "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" .
Trouble is I'm using the right password.
Been through Bigpond Tech support (the Mac guy who I had to wait
for 30 minutes but was quite polite but couldn't help apart from
backing up my email and creating a new account and putting it into
the new one - oy vey!) and checked the preferences that everything
was filled in correctly. Even double checked that the password is
the right one but to no avail. And don't remember anything on Wamug
about this.
Anyone have any experience with this sort of thing or any advice?
Thanks in advance.
