Error receiving message from server

Asked by Bob Early

I Just used the Evolution Setup Wizard to set up email account for the first time. Outgoing mail works fine. I sent myself a test message. Evolution now shows one message waiting but not displayed. Send/Receive produces a message:

 "Unable to connect to POP server pop3.mail.wowway.com. Error sending password. POP authentication DB not available (bobed)

 "Please enter the password for bobed on pop3.mail.wowway.com"

The wizard said nothing about a password and nothing I enter is acceptable. The error message just repeats. I assume I have entered something wrong during setup, but what?
