I am trying to set up Mozilla Thunderbird account because not happy with Windows live mail, but i keep getting the following notice when I try to get mail. I have found I can send mail ok.

Sending of password for user ........ did not succeed. Mail server mail.bigpond.com responded: pop operation is not allowed for this user.

Sounds like your provider wants you to use IMAP instead of POP. Have you checked with them to see if the offer POP?
