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

Phil
