One of my email accounts seems to be installed, but won't work or access the account.

The problem started when the password wasn't recognized. I put it in again, and then got an error message that the account couldn't connect to the server or something. The message that appears is not full and disappears off the screen before I can read what is there. I removed the account and reinstalled it. Now it still gives me an error message that the inbox won't process to the best of what I can tell. This is my major email account and it's VERY frustrating. I don't know what to do to get that email account to connect with the server. I don't know if I'm even using the right language, but it won't download messages or generate the different folders that are supposedly available on the account; only the inbox folder is showing, but nothing is coming in.
