When I check my email account on my Samsung phone I get a message that reads YOU MUST RE-ENTER YOUR PASSWORD FOR YOUR (gives my account name) (IMAP). This just started yesterday. I have no idea what IMAP means. Anyone ever experience this before?

Email can be setup with most providers as either IMAP or Pop3. IMAP is the most popular as it allows you to see your email on multiple devices.

Looks like your email settings "forgot" your system password. You might want to check with your email provider if you're unsure where to find the password settings.
