Pop up box "Enter Network Password" keeps appearing for my email a

[Kirsten Ireland]

I have two additional email accounts, set up with their own passwords. Out of
the blue, I now keep getting a pop up box appearing for each email account I
have (which is 3), asking me to enter the user name and password for each
email account. The user name and password fields are already filled in, so I
just have to click "OK", but this pop up box appears every time my outlook is
set to send and receive mail, which is every two minutes.
It is very annoying. As long as I click "OK", my mail sends and receives fine.
This is happening to my original email account as well, which I have had set
up for the last 4 years, with no changes. No idea why this has started up.
If I am typing (like now) and not looking at the screen, I can end up typing
in the password box inadvertently. VERY annoying!!

Depends on the version of Outlook.
Depends on the version of Windows.

Since you didn't provide that information, you'll have to do your own
search at Microsoft's huge support knowledgebase site.

- Go to http://support.microsoft.com.
- Select advanced search.
- Select the version of your product.
- Search on "remember password <yourOS>". Replace <yourOS> with
whatever version you are using.
- If using a pre-Vista version of Windows, add "protected storage" to
the search string.

And if your send/receive interval is in fact 2 mins, increase this to 10
mins
The lower setting can cause resource problems
