Hi Laura,
I've only just caught up with this thread so, firstly, good to hear you now
have mail working.
> Until I know how to use Keychain I shall keep well away from it.
I agree that it is best not to start changing things in Keychain unless you
know just what you are doing (and why). However
Hi Laura,
I hope you now have your iiNet Account details and password for your Mail
Account for the next time something like this happens.

Hi Ronni
It seems Keychain had nothing to do with the problem!! . iinet have fixed
whatever the problem was. All is now well and I can access Mail as always.
Until I know how to use Keychain I shall keep well away from it. My thanks also
to Daniel and Rob for their suggestions.
My apologies
Try the password you use for Webmail when Mail asks for the password.

Hi Ronni
I know the password I use when accessing webmail. I tried the on line contact
with iinet but there is a problem
somewhere there. I've phoned and am now waiting for a call back from them.

Hi Again Laura, I thought I better say "Don't type your Password in your reply
email", I only meant for you check what password you are using in iiNet
Webmail, as it probably is the same as in your Mail Account in Apple Mail.

Hi Laura,
NO, the email account's password is NOT your Login (Administrator) Password.
It is the password you would have given iiNet when you signed up & setup your
Account with them.
What password are you using to access your iiNet webmail?
Do you have a copy of your iiNet Account settings /
The only problem with this is it sounds like the keychain has been locked so it
will ask for a password to store the password.
Depending on how many other items are in the keychain I would probably just
trash the keychain from ~/Library/Keychains then launch Safari and when it
says there is no
Hi Ronni
Sorry but I don't know the password for my mail account. It was set up four
years ago. I could assume it's the
same as my login password but no guarantee, so not sure if I should still go
ahead with your latest suggestion.
I feel rather stupid about all this given that I'm not consc
Hi Laura
You can also try some of the "generic" ones used for the admin password in
Keychain. These are apple or password or (nothing. Just leave it blank and
click ok).
Try those and cross fingers :)
Kind regards

Hi Laura,
The User ID=501 is you The Owner. Ownership in Mac OS X, and all flavours of
Unix, is based on an account’s user identification number (UID) and
a group’s group identification number (GID), not on the user name and group
name you see in the Info window or other folder listings.

Hi Ronni
Yes that is correct, I used my normal login password for the verification but
if I use it when asked for
"login"keychain password I get the message that the password is invalid.
In "Access Control" I tried deselecting "confirm before allowing access" and
instead chose "allow all appl
Hi Laura,
You say below that you did 'Verify' your login keychain … You had to type in
your Administrator(User Account) password to allow you to do that?
If you never set a different password for your Keychain 'login', the password
is your Administrator password.

Hi Ronni
Thanks for that but still no joy. I've followed the steps you mention but when
I select "show password" I am
asked for my keychain login password. The only password I know is my main login
password and when I insert
that I get a message saying it is invalid. Is there a separate admin

Hi Ronni
When you recently responded to a query and indicated how you use Keychain I
decided I should have a look at whether I should be doing likewise. I didn't
get very far, was not sure what to do so just left it alone.
At least that's what I thought I had done but now I am locked out of Ma
