| | Password problem in Outlook I can't believe I am having this problem. I have an old Yahoo email account, a free one, one that I have imported from Win98SE to Win2K to WinXP, and now Vista, where it has been working happily for over a year. Several days ago Outlook began throwing up the dreaded Enter Network Password box. I haven't a clue what the password is. I thought I knew but . . . . For years I have used this account as a semi-serious account; I use it to keep in contact with family and friends scattered all over the world. (For business I use an account on my own server.) Can anyone suggest an app that will reveal the passwords in Outlook without munging my email? Free is good.  This has been going on for several days. I'm enjoying the peace and quiet, but I keep having visions of all these messages screaming to get out. TIA Eilidh in England -- Eilidh |
