password required for pop3 receive server says login failed

I can no longer receive emails without this message coming up. What have I done? I have tried what I thought was the password but it’s not working   Computer dummy here 

You can check that you have the correct port and security policy for your server. Go to Menu > Tools > Accounts and click on the POP3 tab for your account. Without knowing who you use, you can try port 995 with Use SSL/TLS on special port (legacy). That generally is the best for POP3, so see if that makes any difference.

Sorry Gary computer dummy again. where is the menu tools acct?

 

Maybe this will help:

 

Then check the port and security policy in the POP3 tab:

Thank you trying that

I have the same problem. I set my POP and SMTP to recommended settings for my verizon/aol account and stopped receiving my emails. No changes to anything.

I did this and they are set correctly. Still not receiving emails!

Can you disable your anti-virus and firewall and try again?

How did you resolve the problem? I’m having the same issues. Gladis
