password mayhem

This stupid piece of crap "windows mail" vista program keeps stopping
everything I'm doing to force me to re-assert my name and password. It's so
brain-dead that it doesn't give me a clue as to which email it's referring (
I have multiple accounts with the same server) which makes this stupid
behavior even more time consuming. I'm downloading Thunderbird as we live and
breathe. MIcrosoft spends too much time trying to copy OSX (and not getting
the point of going unix) and is wasting time and money in the process.
Micro-soft gets one thing right. Micro. Your brains are micro. And you also
are correct about soft. Your brains are soft. I guess I shouldn't complain.
You spell it out. Micro-brains. Soft-brains.

Try a manual Send/Receive for each account.

Re: password mayhem

How do you explain that the overwhelming majority of users have no
problem with Windows Mail? Almost all problems are caused by pilot
error or are due to running non-compatible security software.
