Hi, I have this annoying Mail password request action, that pops up from time to time and seems utterly useless.

The pop up window is, Enter Password for Account "xxxx...@hotmail.com" Please re-enter your password, or cancel. (There is a Box to enter the Password) Then - Remember this password in my keychain, with a box to put a confirming cross in. Then a Cancel or OK.

Now I have told it on many occasions to remember it in my keychain, so I can't see why the window pops up in the first place! (Why isn't keychain remembering it and for that matter Mail and 1Password.)

I have never changed the password so I can't see how it can be rejected.

When I type it in it doesn't accept it anyway. (It accepts the password but wont go online that is.)

So I press cancel and after a while the Mail application automatically searches for mail and it works or I go to Mailbox>Online Status>Take"xxxx...@hotmail.com" Online, it goes online, without a password being input and everything works until the next time.

Anyone have any idea what is going on?

Matt
