TB! now opens as it had for all these years without having to enter that password. I don't understand why changing the password and then changing it back to what it was originally caused such behavior but here we are. My sincere thanks to you and Adrian both for helping me. -- Regards, Jack Central Alabama USA The Bat!

Now that you mention it I'm sure you're correct, it does not come from RIT Labs. My apologies to the list. -- Regards, Jack Central Alabama USA The Bat!

Re: Access password
Hello Jack, I get a "memberships reminder" every month that has passwords from mailman-ow...@thebat.dutaint.com, but that is not Rit Labs. Those passwords are for if you ever use a web browser to access this tbudl mailing list.

I'm assuming everyone who uses TB! gets these same emails from RIT Labs monthly. CTRL F12 will bring up the account password. Now when I start TB! it opens with my account tree collapsed (it never used to do that). When I click on the PLUS sign to expand the account tree TB! asks for the password.
