Netscape Messenger doesn't save the SMTP AUTH password, thus you have to
enter it each time you start it. I did find a configuration option that you
can add to prefs.js file that will disable SMTP AUTH in Netscape Messenger.
I'm not near the computer where I tried the setting on. When I am near that
system I'll post the config option.
