Re:Netscape 7. Which password?

It could be unclear if you are writing about a passwork in Netscape or your email server's password.

Hi Bob.It is the password for Netscape mail.I use no other passwords for Netscape at all.Once you log into mail there doesn,t appear to be "Change Password" button anywhere like you see in Hotmail.Password manager has one but it,s for Netscape Master?? which I don,t use? Thanks Again Tim

Netscape Email Password No Longer Requested
Aug 30, 2008 3:25AM PDT

I have Netscape 7.2 and am not sure what I might have done, but several days ago when accessing my Netscape emails I DID NOT receive the prompt to enter my email password. I don't recall making any "preference" changes, but ...

Is there a way of getting the password prompt back?

Thanks in advance for any direction.

Uncheck Remember Password?
Sep 1, 2008 8:13PM PDT

R Proffitt,
My server setting screen is not quite like the one supplied by the link. I don't have a "Remember password" check box. However (FYI), under Tools and Password Manager I found my mailbox ID. Not sure what I must have done to put it there, but I removed it from the list of connections and passwords to remember. I then Logged off the PC, rebooted and now I once again get prompted for my email password.
