When your calling $username in your _IEFormElementSetValue, you're actually getting the ControlID of the GUICtrlInput that you created on your GUI. 

You need to use

$somevar = GUICtrlRead($username) 

to actually get the string in the input field.

It's also kind of suspicious to have a 'Number of Searches' field while on a webmail login page.

I'm sorry, I am very new at this, what do you mean?

ok, i get it, thank you so much for your help!!!

No problem, my best advice is to keep the Function reference open while you're coding (hit F1 in Scite), you will get a lot farther a lot faster!

Every time you need to do something, read the reference.
