I am attempting to set up my email, however when I enter my email password I get this message Logging in to the verizon.net POP server “pop.verizon.net” failed. Make sure the user name and password you entered are correct, then click Continue."

Check with Verizon for the email set up instructions for OS X. They usually have a settings template in the help section of their website.

Could be that your user name needs to be xxx@yyy.net as opposed to just xxx. That's why I'm suggesting the template.

HTH

Make sure your account settings are correct.

incoming: pop.verizon.net port 995 use SSL authentication password

outgoing: smpt.verizon.net port 465 use SSL authentication password

I never can remember the order and I had typed in wrong in my notes - thanks for pointing that out to me. 😝
