Password required

[Jerry]

Hello,
I have Outlook 2000 running on three networked computers. Two of the
computers have W2000, and one has XP.

My problem is on the XP computer. Whenever Outlook checks for messages, I
click Send/Receive, or send an email, Outlook asks for a user ID and
password.

I set the properties up identically on all three computers and have double
checked them. Now I may have missed something, but if I didn't, does
anyone know what might be causing this and how to fix?

thanks a lot.
Jerry

To add a little info, on the server tab in the properties box for the mail
account, I have entered the password and checked the 'remember password' on
the XP computer just like the other two machines.

However, when I close out the properties box, and open it back up again,
the saved password is missing. I have installed all three Outlooks with the
same Office Pro 2000 disk.

You do realize this is likely illegal, don't you?
