Outlook 2003 prompts me for a password for an email account
Help! Outlook 2003 prompts you for a password for an email account that has a
saved password that is already saved. When the dialogue box "Enter Network Password" pops up (every 5 minutes) it has the server line filled in, my user name filled in and my password filled in. The "Save the password in your password list" box is never checked so every 5 minutes i have to reckeck that box however it never stays!!! This is driving me crazy. It started doing this yesterday and after calls to my ISP and looking around this site i find no working resolution. I found something that was for Outlook 2002 but it wasn't relevant to me because i only have one email account set up that uses this password and/or user name. can someone save my sanity?

Outlook 2003 prompts me for a password for an email account
Welcome to the Outlook 2003 Password Hell club. :-( I don't think MS
will write a fix for us, they want to sell Outlook 2007. Al On Tue, 19 Jun 2007 10:23:03 -0700, Redcookie wrote: Help!

Outlook 2003 prompts me for a password for an email account
Ah Ha! So i am not alone out here. Well i was afraid of that. What i just
found had me go into my system and changing my registry key, and that could cause problems that they say cannot be solved. *sigh* guess i'll have to go shopping because this confirming password every 5 minutes is going to send me to an early grave. thanks alfred, for at least letting me know it's not just me.

Outlook 2003 prompts me for a password for an email account
Hi,
I'm in... weekend of complete hell trying to sort out OL2002 "enter Network Password." Tried everything but nothing worked. Your thought of OL upgrade to OL2007 seems the most viable and honest answer. Thanks for that. It's good bye to OL for me, there loads of other calendar, contacts and e-mail sorter-outers on the market, I never want to experience this again..... "Redcookie" wrote: Ah Ha!
