I use Mozilla Mail almost exclusively.

Perhaps I missed something very obvious but there's nowhere to enter your password when you set up a mail account. When you fire it it up it sits there giving silly "Connection refused" messages. Obviously it _must_ work and no doubt that under some obscure menu there's a "Hide your email passwords here and even you will never find them" option. But it makes you wonder what has been going on for the past 4 years when the email client still hasn't got basic human interface right. </rant> OK. Now that's off my chest could someone please tell me how to tell Mozilla mail that my mail server asks for a password and is there a way for it to store that password? Thanks. Patrick
I believe you'll find password management to be under Tasks/Privacy and Security/Password Manager.
I don't believe that's what your problem is however. It sounds like perhaps you have a network problem or a typo in the mail server's address, etc.
Are you using IMAP or POP?You might delete the account and then recreate it. If there's a typo somewhere that you just "can't see", that should take care of it.
