OF COURSE, I had to go under settings and enter the new password, and there's the hint.

Maybe the phone forgot the settings, or you unknowingly disabled the account (these things happen on a small screen with fat fingers)

Review the settings on the phone under mail accounts. At least the password is correct on the computer. That helps.
