Windows 7 Connecting to POPS mail

Hi,

I cannot succeed to create a POP3 email account that will download mail from my work server and from my Yhaoo mail acount.
Both are POP3 account and the message I get is login failed even that the name and password are correct
the firewall is not blocking the login attempt...
Any idea is welcome, thanks
