[MlMt] password change
I was wondering I use Apple Mail for archiving purposes, and indeed, just updated the password there. And for sending email, MailMate just asked me for the password. Logic restored.

[MlMt] password change
It seems it goes even more smoothly than that: I did not have to change it, Mailmate seems to have found out of its own accord. Almost scary The password for my work email must be changed every six months. I just changed it yesterday, then wanted to update MailMate and could not figure out how. Still surprised!

As far as I can see, Mailmate keeps the passwords in Keychain, so you probably could change it with Keychain.app. That is correct, but it is not strictly necessary to change it using Keychain.app. If the password of an account has changed then MailMate should fail authentication and automatically request a new password. -- Benny ___ mailmate mailing list mailmate at lists.freron.com http://lists.freron.com/listinfo/mailmate
