Account passwords

S

Stormcooper

I have a broadband connection to Freeserve, and my mail account with them. My family also have their email accounts through mine. I have migrated the three accounts to Outlook 2002 and they work. The problem is that every time I click send/receive, an account box pops up with the acccount/password details in there and I have to click 'OK' for it to send/receive. Even if I select to save the password to my password list, the same thing happens next time. The strange thing is that I don't have to retype the password. That is already there, I just have to click ok. How can I get it to send/recieve without having these boxes pop up?
