Rowan Posted September 5, 2010 Share Posted September 5, 2010 Hi everyoneI am having problems with my email. Everything was fine until last night, when incoming mail could no longer be received. I get the following error message. I haven't altered any of my settings. Can anyone help, please?"There may be a problem with the mail server or network. Check the settings for account “mail” or try again.The server error encountered was: The POP server “pop.tiscali.co.uk” doesn’t support X-APOP authentication. Please check your account settings and try again." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tel Posted September 5, 2010 Share Posted September 5, 2010 Hi,I am not an imac user but this came up on Google, worth trying:In Settings, Mail, "Account name", Advanced ensure that Incoming Settings Authentication is set to Password NOT MD5 Challenge-Response.You need to check and correct this on each individual mail account.Regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
