I once had such problem and I so solved it. I've played with the registry yourself (Win2000, Office 2003) and found this thread: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\Outlook\OMI Account Manager\Accounts\00000001

Apparently there are stored server configuration. So there is a key "POP3 Password2" type binary. If we take its value and look in Protected Storage Explorer a branch "Protected Storage\Identification\INETCOMM Server Passwords\< key value >", then this will be the password for the POP3 account (at least for me it is).You can go also to this forum and read useful information.

Hello, you will need to talk to your system administrator if you are using a company email address, or talk to your email provider if it is a private email address. They should be able to provide you with your login info (or else reset it for you) as well as the correct server name.
