How can i recover a password from outlook express?

Outlook Express Keeps asking for my Name/Password and then fails to load. Next day works fine for couple hrs?

  • I run Win Xp with Outlook Express and My emails are hosted by Yahoo. As My web sites are hosted by Yahoo Small businesses. So recently I will be doing business on my computer as usual and then out of nowhere OutLook will ask for my username and Password, Well Knowing I did not change my password Ill just click Ok and it will not work and just prompt me over and over. So Ill shut it down till the next day and itl work just fine. Just to be sure someone is not trying to guess my password locking me out of yahoo, I go to Internet explorer and log into my email just fine. So its not that yahoo locked my account. So I have no idea why this is happening. But this happened to me yester day and then this morning it worked as if nothing happened. and then today I am going about my business and I hit Send receive and Wham!! Prompt me again!!! Anybody have any Ideas what the heck this is all about??? It can not be a Virus because If I switch IDs It does not do the same crap with my other ID's under Outlook Express.. I am so annoyd with this crap so If Anyone knows please HELP!! Feel free to go to www.honuheroes.org and fill out my user web form and tell me the answer there!!! Aloha

One of my clients who relies on yahoo business mail just had this problem. It went on until about 10 am eastern time today. It is very annoying and I sure hope it's not going to be a regular thing. Surely Yahoo management must understand that in business wasted time is wasted money and possibly missed opportunities.
