Outlook 2003 Password will not Save

G

Guest

Seems like a problem most people have. I am running xp pro and just installed
fresh copy of office professional 2003. I have two user accounts wih xp. One
is home personal and the other is work. All software was installed on home
account. Problem is that on personal account outlook never asks for passwords
for email. I have two email accounts. One is mine the other is my wife's.
They both work perfect. I can send/ receive and there is no prompt for
password. When I switch over to work and I go to check email with outlook it
asks me for password everytime no matter how many times I try to save
password.

I have already uninstalled and reinstalled office. I have done the protected
storage registry change that is recommended on microsofts website. Nothing
works. I have even tried deleting the work account and starting fresh. Still
nothing works. It's really annoying to have to check your work email and
enter password everytime. All accounts are pop3 and they are all the same
server (cox.net).

And yes I have googled, asked microsoft (no response) and have searched
everywhere. No answers.

Thanks everyone,

Mike

I suggest you post to an outlook newsgroup such as
microsoft.public.outlook.general. That's were the Outlook experts hang out.

Best asked in an Outlook newsgroup - this is where most of
the Outlook experts are found.
