I am receiving mail as the administrator.The user account can send but oes
not receive mail.
 
Does the user account go through the motions of contacting the
server when you click its Send/Receive button?
Is there an email stuck in the Inbox? Try deleting the account,
restarting Windows Mail, and then re-create that mail account.

It is normal for a POP account to remove mail from the server.
If you want both user accounts to download the same mail, go to
Tools, Accounts, select the account, Properties, Advanced, and
check the box for "Leave a copy of messages on server." Also
select one of the 'remove' options to prevent the server mailbox
from exceeding its quota.

Did you make that setting change on both computers?
If so, can you access the account via webmail to ascertain whether
the messages are still on the server?
If this is a Gmail account, it may need special treatment.

There are a few mail providers (including Gmail) who do not honor
the "leave a copy on the server" setting.

I don't know why you are suddenly getting the 'invalid password'
error, unless you are running non-compatible security software
such as McAfee or Norton.

Are these accounts with the same ISP?
It sounds like they are aliases for the same mailbox on the server, in which
case the first user to access the account will download all the mail in the
mailbox.
For a test, send an email to the user who doesn't get mail and see if you
get it.
