after updating to 38.7.1, I no longer can use one of my email accounts. I can use it with Windows live mail under exact same settings. What do I need to do?

It gives me error "Login to server imap.secureserver.net failed." when I click inbox. The password is correct, I didn't change it and can log on via internet browser. Here are settings for my accounts:
