i have written a java code using javamail API's.
i am trying to retrieve mails using a pop3 server.(ArGoSoft mail
server)
i get the following exception.


javax.mail.AuthenticationFailedException
at javax.mail.Service.connect(Service.java:265)
at javax.mail.Service.connect(Service.java:135)
at javax.mail.Service.connect(Service.java:87)
at sendmail.main(MailTest.java:17)

the reason for this is i am not providing the username & password.
i am illiterate on this particular thing.
i am confused about what authentication is required. and what username
and password to provide.

plz guide me on this asap!!
