I have 5 accounts currently set up in Outlook2002, on 3 different servers.
At first I thought it was a server problem, but then I noticed that it
wasn't always the same account that gave the password challenge, but one of
those servers was never involved.   (What that tells me I'm not sure). 

On one account, if I type in the password, it's accepted and I get mail
downloaded, on another on the same server, if I type in the password it's
rejected at least twice, then accepted.  I'm  having trouble pinning it down
to a firm pattern.

Yet I can always get in to those accounts using Outlook Express and the
browser-based webmail client, so I  know for sure I have correct
username/passwords etc, and that the accounts aren't disabled or anything
like that.

This leads me to think I have a corruption somewhere in Outlook2002 - either
in the part that sends passwords or where it stores it. I've tried
reinstalling Outlook, using the 'repair' option, but that hasn't done much
good.  Now I'm trying to figure out where to go from here.

I have the same problem at home with my Outlook 2002, I don't think
(although I am not sure) that it is Outlook itself. It's usually when I have
a lot of mail to download on several accounts, so I reckon because of the
traffic from the other accounts that have already established a connection
to the mail server the others simply won't get through. But that's just a
thought. Do you have more than one account or just one?
I haven't paid much attention to it (although it is annoying) because it
always goes away when I wait and click several times on remember password.
