Who is your email provider? How did you get your email before?

After getting that username/password prompt, click Cancel.
Does it then show an error message? If so, right-click on your
error message, copy, then paste it into a reply here.

Remove your mail account completely and close WinMail. Then compact and
repair the database (see www.oehelp.com/WMUTil/). Then make sure your
antivirus software is not set to scan email (see point 3 here:
www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3) and then open WinMail and add your mail
account back again and see if it works then.
