Re: OE account password



I used OE to retrieve my Hotmail account also. The only thing I noticed
when I looked over my account setup was that the password field "grays out"
when I uncheck the "remember password" setting. Other settings that I have
checked are "Include this account when receiving mail or syncronizing",and
"Always connect to this account using". The Hotmail installation is pretty
automatic but I know there is a disclaimer about no support for using OE to
receive your Hotmail.

good luck with your problem.

OE retrieves mail from my hotmail account and it prompts me for password.
Going to Tools/Accounts /Mail/Properties-I have checked the box to
remember the password.
Again when I send or receive mail it prompts me for password -pops the box
with user name
and password already filed up(option to remember password grayed out).
Is there a way to get rid of this annoying box? make it receive and send
automatically?

Sincerely,

Rob
