I see that you are experiencing some issues with Mail on your iOS device. I have an article for you that will help you troubleshoot this issue, and it can be found right here:
"Username or password is incorrect" with POP3 account
Before you check your email on your iOS device, close any other email programs and webmail sites that you have open on other computers. POP3 accounts communicate with one mail client at a time. If more than one mail client tries to connect at the same time, you might see a user name or password error.
To see if your account is a POP3 account, use the Mail Settings Lookup tool or follow these steps on your iOS device:
- Go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars and choose your account.
- Look for the label POP Account Information.
