    Windows Live Mail

    Unable to send or receive messages for the Googlemail (keef247) account. Windows Live Mail couldn't log on to the e-mail server using secure password authentication. Contact your e-mail provider and verify that it supports secure password authentication. To change this logon setting, in the folder list, right-click on the account name, and then click Properties on the shortcut menu. In the Properties dialog, click the Servers tab, and then under Incoming Mail Server, select a logon option.

    Server Error: 0x800CCC90
    Server Response: -ERR not supported e1pf9511414ugf
    Server: 'pop.gmail.com'
    Windows Live Mail Error ID: 0x800CCC18
    Protocol: POP3
    Port: 995
    Secure(SSL): Yes

    argh....
    using gmail... and also even if the manually configure server settings isn't enabled i still have to:S
    i enter pop.gmail.com ssl 995
    smtp.gmail.com ssl 465 server requires auth etc etc.
    do it all right and it gives the above:S

    Re: Windows Live Mail

    is there any chance you could explain the problem in English.

    Are you having a problem with gmail or windows live ?

    If so could you detail the problem.

    It looks like your trying to get windows live to use your gmail pop3 and smtp servers ?
    It is Inevitable.....

    Google it.
    There is a program that you can D/l and it will tell you the settings you have wrong and how to adjust them.

    I use WLM and have 2 gmail accounts set in it.

    or look here: How to Access Gmail with Windows Mail - About Email
