Ubuntu wont accept my Pop3 password.

Asked by tony charles

Evolution Mail will not accept my pop3 password, although It did with the previous version of Ubuntu.
The password I am using is the one given to me by my ISP.

Ubuntu Evolution does not work in receiving mail.
I reentered details of my account several times,
Evolution sent the following message:
"unable to connect to POP server pop3.email.msn.com.
Error sending username:
-ERR command not implemented
Please enter the pop password for francocicioni on host pop3.email.msn.com".
I wrote my username in two ways at first : francocicioni and then franco cicioni.
Now really I don't know what else I have to do.
Can somebody help me?
Thanks
franco cicioni
