Thank you Peter, but in this case you know not of what you speak. I am definitely getting flaky behaviour from my Outlook. It's got nothing to do with FTP as I have already told you at least 5 times
I have taken fairly sizable chunks of the last 3 days to go through a steady and logical process of isolating the source of the problems I'm experiencing, and I am convinced I am having aberrant behaviour coming from Outlook2002. Does anyone know where Outlook stores passwords? In the registry? IN the .pst file? And yes, FTP is working again, precisely as I said it would be, 5 minutes after gaining access to the Sysadmin.

Even "email anti-spam" checkers like MailWasher Pro 3.2.0 have difficulty connecting to the flakey server. I speak from experience as the same flakey server host your site as well as two of my own. It is not MS Outlook I am sure. Without embarrasing you too much remember that FTP died today also. Seems to be working again after 12 hours. I only needed to upload two templates. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of mkear Sent: Friday, 24 October 2003 8:20 PM To: CFAussie Mailing List Subject: [cfaussie] OT: Strange behaviour with Outlook2002 Off Topic, so I'm sorry but I think you people know more than any other group I know of ... I'm getting some aberrant behaviour from MS Outlook2002 - lately it's been popping up the invalid password dialog box when I collect mail, but if I just click "OK" it goes away and gets the mail. Next time I collect mail, it'll be another account that's supposedly refusing the login, but entering the password again, clicking the "remember password" box and it goes and gets the mail. Then again a few times later, the same thing, so it hasn't remembered the password or it's sending the wrong info to the mail server. I thought for a while it was a problem at the mail server, but I could collect mail using Outlook Express without problems, and I know the passwords were ok because I can log in using the web based mail client without problems ever. And other people have been able to use Outlook to access my account without any problems too. So I think I have a corruption in MS Outlook somewhere. I reinstalled Outlook, using the "repair" option but that didn't make any difference. So here's the question ... Has anyone else had this behaviour? I assume it's probably caused by one of the many virus attacks I get each day. Does anyone know where Outlook keeps the passwords and email account info? Is it encrypted in the registry? (Wondering how far the corruption goes - just Outlook or perhaps it's a wider issue). Any ideas anyone?
