Repeated and frequent password requests since upgrading to 10.6 - Version: 2.6, 10/3/2009 03:51AM PST

Hi All

I have noticed that since upgrading to Snow Leopard (10.6.x), prior to MacFreePops 2.6 fetching my emails from my two webmail accounts, it requests their passwords. This occurs every few minutes. Despite providing the passwords and adding them to my Keychain, the requests still keep coming. I have learnt that cancelling these requests is the best way to deal with them. Cancelling does not appear to affect MacFreePops ability to fetch my emails. However, the requests are annoying even though they are quickly dealt with.

I encountered a similar problem with 10.5.x but the password requests were infrequent. With 10.6.x the requests appear every fetch cycle.

REGARDS

Workability versus Settings?? - Version: 2.2, 7/2/2007 01:13PM PST

Have downloaded v2.2 for Mac 10.4 Intel but fail to make it work. Would be VERY interested in knowing what settings were made by those who managed.
Have followed instructions re Server 127.0.0.1 and port 2000 on both Entourage and Thunderbird, as well as re account/user name. Error reply on both Entourage and Thunderbird.
My IMAP accounts have extension .fr and not .com. I understood that this should not be a problem. Or does one have to download an extra extension for .fr? If so, where? Believe I saw a list of extra extensions but for PC.
Would be MORE THAN GRATEFUL for any advice you can give me based on your own experience.
FreePOPs is a great idea, but for the moment it seems to lack precision. Wish I knew Italian in which case I would gladly volunteer a translation of the manual.....
ALSO wonder why v2.2 shows up as 0.2.5 when one clicks on "Info about MacFreePOPs" in upper left screen corner.
Thanks in advance for all ideas that might help.
