Disabling «enter user name and password†dialog box

A

I’ve got vista and MS Outlook 2007. Accounts are checked automatically for
mail every 30 minutes.
All accounts are POP#/SMTP
Rather often I get a message «enter user name and passwordâ€.
I know that it is caused by temporary mail server malfunction. After a while
the message stops appearing then it comes back again.
Is there a way to disable this kind of message once and for all? It is very
annoying. I was unable to find an option in Outlook itself. Is it possible to
do it by editing the registry?

Hello

Normally this is not possible to prevent this message, but you can do some
things to reduce the appearance of it. Try to increase the delay for the
sever timeout and mybe the response time for the POP server to 200 or 300
and the SMTP server to 30 or 40

This should help

Regards
Bernd

Thanks, that’s what I feared. I don’t think there is any hope MS will address
this issue in future versions of Office.
