Won't accept password for incoming mail

Nothing changed back in May 2014, but suddenly TB said my stored p/w was not authenticated for my verizon.net account. I tried resetting it, tried the 'other' possible p/w's - nothing. I gave up and just started using the VZ one on the net (not my preference- I LIKE all my email acct's in TB.
I don't want to delete the account since there are many emails I 'need' to retrieve.
I don't understand what's wrong with this particular account; my gmail one is fine through TB.
Here's my current settings:
Server Type: POP Mail Server
Server Name: incoming.verizon.net (I did try "pop.verizon.net" - didn't work)
Port: 995
Connection Security: SSL/TLS
Suggestions? I need to get into these emails to retrieve some.
Thanks!

NEVER MIND!! I figured it out -
I had "any method" (deprecation) for authentication and switched it to "normal password".
Got incoming mail again! YAY ME! :)

Is it possible to highlight text in Apple Mail for incoming mails and outgoing mails?

Is it possible to highlight text in Apple Mail for incoming mails and outgoing mails?

If you mean that you wish to highlight messages from certain people or domain names, then if you select Preferences under 'Mail' (top left hand corner next to the Apple logo when you're in the mail application) and then select the right hand icon marked 'rules', then click on Add Rule and hopefully the rest is fairly self explanatory.
Best of luck

My incoming mail user .wav file doesn't play for incoming mails. It does work on local test.

I have windows 7 Professional PC and use Mozilla Thunderbird 24.4.0 as my email account. I have a local .wav music file for incoming mail which tests OK, but when a new mail arrives it doesn't play. I have all the boxes ticked in the settings. Can anyone help please?

An update on local .wav sound file for incoming TB mail messages.
Driver Booster found outdated drivers and all have been updated.
Sound device has been removed from the device manager and automatically re-installed.
From advice given I have turned mail.imap.use_status_for_biff to "false".
Still no sound from my local .wav file. Is my problem unique? Is 2.74 MB too large as a sound file?

HT1338 I can no longer use Macmail for my btinternet account. I was advised to delete the imap account and begin again with a pop account for incoming mail. My Macbook will not let me do that and neither BT nor Yahoo have been able to help.

Btinternet being your internet service provider? If I'm correct, have you followed their directions:

How do you specify a minimum font size for incoming mail?

Is there a way to specify a minimum font size for incoming mail messages? Mail I get from others is almost unreadable and I always have to manually (apple +) increase the size.
As a test, a friend on a PC (most mail I get comes from Windows) kept increasing the size he sent me, but when I received it there was no change in size on my end.
I can't find anything in Mail's menus and preferences to change this behavior.
Mail 2.07; OS 10.4.6.
Thanks,
Cathy

if i had the problem then i'd make a backup copy of
my ~/library/preferences/com.appple.mail.plist file,
open the original in property list editor, look for
any likely elements that have small or negative font
sizes and set them to, say, 12, save the changes and
see if that helped
Found the file; couldn't open it (tried Text Edit?) to make any changes.
You can use the following trick to force Mail to
always use a larger minimum font size on received
messages - some HTML messages might not look exactly
as intended but at least you can now read them:
1. Quit Mail
2. Open the Terminal
(/Applications/Utilities/Terminal) and type in the
following:
defaults write com.apple.mail
MinimumHTMLFontSize 13
3. Restart Mail.app and your HTML messages are
readable.
Of course you can set the point size to whatever you
like.
Found file; was not comfortable inputing text as this simple task did not behave properly.
PC friend said other Mac user reported this same anomally with receiving small text from him. I have over a dozen different PC users that I correspond with where I have this problem. It seems to be on the Mac end.

Mail 2.1 and password error message when checking for incoming mail

I get a "password rejection" error message when Mail 2.1 tries to check for incoming messages and there are no messages to retrieve (I have an Earthlink account). I don't have any problems sending messages. When I send a test message to myself, Mail can retrieve it. When I check mail a few minutes later, I get the "password rejection" message from Earthlink. This also happens when I use MS Entourage (v10.1.6). I have been using Entourage for years and just recently started using Mail and this password problems seemed to appear recently (last few weeks).
Has anyone else experienced a similar problem? Since this happens in both Mail and Entourage, I don't know if it is Mac OS 10.4.10 or Earthlink. I tried Earthlink tech support and they were not much help.
Thanks,
Kenny

Problem resolved by itself. I think it was a problem with my ISP.

Mail does not recognize password for incoming mail

I use mail to retrive messages from two pop accounts a mac account and a work account. But now Mail shows a message saying that the server for my log in name does not recognizes the password. But if I use the webmail of that account it does recognize the password. I am able to sentmail from that account as well as to receive and send from the .mac account. What is the problem?
Thank you very much for any help.

Your email provider is not copmcast, that is your ISP.
You apparently have a comcast account that you access using their web mail. Not really relevant here as we are talking about accounts in mail clients, not browsers.
The settings you have posted are to access your comcast mail account in Thunderbird, something Thunderbird is designed to do. Manage multiple mail accounts.

Why POP Mail Account on Iphone not synching for incoming mails

I just setup my iphone mail account as a POP client to synch up with my corporate Outlook Mail.
For the outgoing mail server I used cwmx.com and for incoming I used the hostname provided by IT support person , with username and password as I would use on my outlook client.
No SSL used in our case.
The setting went fine as I did not see any errors,
but when I try to synch for new mails, it says checking and than says updated, but I don't see any mails coming in.
The send mail works fine from this account.
Can anyone help.

I think what you mean is that you cannot have an email POP account on a laptop and on iphone look for the same messages on the incoming server.
I mean exactly what I provided. A POP account is designed to be accessed with a single email client only. When a POP account is accessed with more than email client, the setting for removing messages from the server when downloaded needs to be off with both email clients used to access the account.
And if accessed with more than one email client, you cannot have both email clients actively accessing the incoming mail server for new messages at or near the same time. If one email client checks the incoming mail server for new messages followed by another email client doing the same at or near the same time, the incoming mail server will lock the account's Inbox mailbox preventing the 2nd email client from accessing the account's Inbox mailbox and downloading new messages if any are available. This is a temporary lock and is due to a POP account being designed to be accessed with a single email client only.
The same does not apply to an IMAP account which is designed to be accessed with more than one email client with multiple email clients being able to access server stored mailboxes at the same time.
Please answer my question which was copied from my previous post and was provided first.
*Since this is a POP account, what is your account setting with Outlook for removing messages from the server when downloaded?*

HT2954 it keeps asking for incoming mail server

For some reason my mail has stopped working. The page keeps asking for an incoming mail server. I put in imap.mail.me.com and that is not working. Also, I can't put in my Google mail either. Has apple just stopped using the mail feature? I had a mobile me account and switched to ICloud and now I have all kind of glitches.
Very frustrated.

Server name: imap.mail.me.com

Changing POP-server for incoming mail Yosemite

I just installed Yosemite. Now I got an e-mail from my mail provider that I needed to change the pop server for that account. When I go via mail/perferences/accounts to my settings, I can edit all the fields except the field "incoming mail server" that is grayed out. How to change that?

Contact your mail provider to make sure the incoming and outgoing mail server for the account is correct.

What do I put in the boxes for incoming mail server, what do I put in the boxes for incoming mail server

I am trying to set up my email. I have an email account from work. What goes in the "Incoming Mail Server" information boxes?

It depends on your work's mail server - it would be unique to them. I'd ask someone in your firm's IT department, or someone else from work who has set it up on an iPhone/iPad. If you have another way of getting email at home, you could look in the settings of your email device to find it.

After I installed ios 5, the alert noise for incoming mail played in my ear while I was on the phone!

I think this is really annoying! While I was on the phone, the tone I chose to alert me to incoming mail, played in my ear while I was on the phone! I couldn't hear what the other person was saying. Also, I have alerts on my calendar and they are not on the reminders app which I think they should be. It is double work to enter in both places, it should just copy from the calendar to the reminders app. What a waste!

It happened to me too. I've read in other posts that the only way to block this is to switch to silent mode when receiving a call, somewhat annoying and frustrating....
