Thanks Ronni, The problem is that the dialogue box which asks for the email does not reappear. If it did, I could put in the correct email. The only way to fix it is to delete the draft email that iPhoto produces and start from scratch. I see that as a quirk in iPhoto, in that it keeps attempting to share the photo without requesting the password again.
I acknowledge what you have said but it's an apple designed dialogue box, or so it appears.
