cannot receive emails anymore

I have a Galaxy 3 and originally I could receive my emails on it. Suddenly it stopped and when I  try to set up the email it gets so far and then says Authentication Failed. As I am not great with mobiles, setting up the email account is about as far as my technology goes. Can anyone help or do I need to take it into a store
