I'm having a similar problem with Outlook 2002. Have to enter my Hotmail
password every time I open Outlook. I have some other issues, but I'll
raise
these via a separate posting.

I installed Outlook 2003 on a new Vista OS desk top computer and it won't
keep my password. I have set up this POP3 account on several XP os
computers
and had no problems. When I enter the password during the account set up
and
hit the test accout settings it works. As soon as I exit the set up and
hit
send/receive a error window opens asking for my password, when I enter my
password it doesn't work. When I go back in to the email setup wizard
the
password is missing even though the save password box is checked. I
tried
checking and even changing the registry settings. Is there a patch or
download for this fix? Please help, my wife thinks I am an idiot for
upgrading to Vista. Am I?
