Reprompt for password

[kjaslow]

When I use Outlook on my laptop, the client is going to OWA under th
covers. When I first start Outlook I'm prompted for a networ
username/password. If I make a mistake when I type this password, th
only way I know to fix the problem is to quit outlook and make sure tha
there is no longer any outlook.exe process and then restart. This i
complicated by the fact that we use Communicator at my company, and s
that app also has to be shut down.

Is there an easy way to bring back the prompt so I can correct th
password without having to quit Outlook altogether?

Thanks

No, it's not. Both Outlook and Outlook Web Access (not related to Outlook)
are Exchange clients, accessing a mailbox on an Exchange server. Outlook
cannot "go to" OWA. What are you really using? Ask OWA questions in
microsoft.public.exchange.clients.

If you enter the wrong Exchange credentials, eventually Outlook will time out
and ask again. In fact, it shouldn't take very long for that reprompt to
occur.
