Not sure if this is Thunderbird or Comcast.
Every time I open my mail I am asked for my password.
I put in my password, check the remember password box, and then get a
bad password error message from Comcast mail server. Over and over if I
keep trying.

BUT If I just X out of the password request, my mail downloads and all
is well.

I think I'm current on T-Bird version 1.8.2

Any clues out there?

Thanks

I think it's Comcast. Happened to me and also yesterday I could not log
into Comcast mail but all was fine an hour later. Hiccup sounds like
good explanation. Old isp had them too.

When I log into my main e-mail it also polls two secondary accounts. I
hadn't realized it was one of the secondaries that had the hiccup. One
letter difference in name. Sheesh. Had to go into Comcast mail manager
and tell it I had no memory of what PW was for that account and then put
in a new one and back in business again. Sometimes I'd prefer a good
CRASH rather that these annoying elusive little problems.
