Windows Live Mail - 2nd E-mail account password issues

Hi,
I'm trying to set up a second e-mail account XXXX@username.plus.com for my wife on Windows Live Mail (Windows 7). It keeps asking for the password for the incoming server (which I've updated for this e-mail account) and consequently won't authorise. I can access the account via Webmail, so PlusNet helpdesk can't help having tried a number of different things as they think the problem lies within Windows Live Mail.
Any suggestions?
Many thanks

Hi there.
For the username are you entering it in the format of mailbox+username?
Are you also able to attach some screenshots to a post showing the settings you're using?
Make sure you blur out any private information though.
