Outlook 2003 "Enter Network Password" prompt

R

Ryan Taylor

Hello.

I using Outlook 2003 against our email server. Our email server is
FirstClass 8. I am randomly receiving requests to enter my network password.
I have entered my username and password and checked the save password
checkbox but I just get prompted again. I do not know why I am being
prompted for this information. It happens often enough to be disruptive at
work. I have set Outlook to check for new mail every 3 minutes. Does anyone
know what might be causing this?

Thanks in advance.

In addition to Roady post you also want to up the polling to at least 5
minutes (I prefer 10 min), you may also be getting prompted especially as
its random because the mail server is busy or temporarily unavailable.
