Hi all,
<rant> I tried Mozilla today. Perhaps I missed something very obvious
but there's nowhere to enter your password when you set up a mail
account. When you fire it it up it sits there giving silly
"Connection refused" messages.
Obviously it _must_ work and no doubt that under some obscure menu
there's a "Hide your email passwords here and even you will never find
them" option. But it makes you wonder what has been going on for the
past 4 years when the email client still hasn't got basic human
interface right. </rant>
OK. Now that's off my chest could someone please tell me how to tell
Mozilla mail that my mail server asks for a password and is there a
way for it to store that password?
Thanks.
Patrick
I use Mozilla Mail almost exclusively. It occasionally crashes
(especially when trying to do anything with the Address Book, which has
some serious issues), but other than that I like it rather well.
I believe you'll find password management to be under Tasks/Privacy and
Security/Password Manager.
I don't believe that's what your problem is however. It sounds like
perhaps you have a network problem or a typo in the mail server's
address, etc.
Are you using IMAP or POP?
You might delete the account and then recreate it. If there's a typo
somewhere that you just "can't see", that should take care of it.
