In Preferences>Accounts>Advanced; Authentication: Password did not work, Authentication: MD5 Challenge-Response WORKS!
I had problems with my ISPs POP accounts. Wave is a substandard version of Road Runner here in Hawaii. GMail worked fine.
Mail 4.5 in SL worked but Mail 5.1 when I upgraded to Lion put circles with an Alert triangle next to the mailbox. The 4.5 setting was Password and it carried over in the Lion upgrade.
I went through three levels of Apple Tech and it was referred to Engineering. After two weeks of trouble shooting with them, Engineering told me the problem only affects a few with small ISPs. They would not take action. The Case was closed.
I farted around some more and gave the MD5 setting a try.
I still think the Lion Address book and iCal suck. *Well, being able to have a bigger font size in iCal is welcome for these old eyes. *And the Auto Save that brings up the unSaved stuff from the last TextEdit is annoying. *I use TextEdit for a scratch pad. *How about something in Preferences for the Apple apps that allows me to turn them back to Snow Leopard like?
