What did you do to get the Sky mail to start working?

I have tried setting this up on both POP3 and IMAP and i can not get it to work. It looks to have set up correctly and then when i get the password input scree i get and error message to say that my Password and username will not authenticate.

Can you let me know what settings you used please, its starting to drive me up the wall!

Cheers......
