not getting emails

I have been getting a pop up message saying the authenication has failed, Invalid login or password. I have been using Opera mail for a while now and I don't know of any reason this should be happening. The mail gets delivered fine to my Blackberry and if I go to Operas web site and log on from there

Welcome to the My Opera community!

Could you give more info?

Operating System?
IMAP or POP account?
Email provider?
Opera version?

Try going to Tools (or O-Menu) -> mail and chat accounts -> select the account -> edit. On the server tab, make sure the settings are correct including re-entering your username and password. OK out etc. to apply. If that doesn't work, go back into the account's settings and set the username/password to something incorrect. Ok out and apply. Then, go back in and set them to what they're supposed to be.

Or, close down Opera and delete wand.dat (you will lose all your saved usernames and passwords). Then, when Opera asks for your username and passwords, enter them.
