hi!
i've a problem with the client MAIL

i have different accounts configured
1 libero (my provider)
1 university account
1 iMac account
1 gmail

yesterday i experienced a strange error
i didn't change any parameter\option form before

when it tries to retrieve new mail on the iMac account it blocks and
ask me for the password.
the password is the right one (i'm sure because i can log-in in my box
via web)
even if i insert the password it doesn't work and keep asking it
(after the retry)
this is strange cause i didn't touch anything!

with the gmail account the problem is the same except that it never
worked
i configured it exactly as the instructions but it still have login
problems

i've a powerbook g4 with osx and i'm on a (university) net (there i
have static ip)

Thanks
Marco

See the other discussion here titled "Mail forgets the passwords".  
Someone else asked the same question today.
