Outlook 2003: Promt for password all the time

[Jacob Jørgensen]

Hello NG.

Lately I periodicaly are being promted for my outlook 2003 mail account
login and password. Login and password are pre-shown in the box and I simply
chose to remember password and presses OK.

After a while I get promted for the same login/password again. How can I
soleve this problem?

Regards

Jacob

Google "enter network password outlook error" and you will find many
resolutions that people say have not worked. It seems to be something no
one has a fix for yet. So far I have tried increasing the server time out
to 3 minutes and that has helped so far. In my case I have about 10 email
address with about 8 being different ISP's. Two of them (the same ISP) have
this happen.

set 2 -3 send and receive groups - max of 4 accounts per group - and put the
accounts that are on the same email server in different groups. Set the
check every xx time to be different for each so they are less likely to hit
at the same time and so that they will have plenty of time to download all
messages between groups - like one for 10 min and one for 12 min. (Less than
5 -8 minutes for email checks is not recommended.)
