George,
Is it KeyChain that is asking you, or is it Mail & Safari?
Are you getting the question about whether to "always allow," and are you answering affirmatively? Are you getting the question about a new location for Safari & Mail, and telling it the new location is OK?
Post screenshots (not to the list) or email them to me.
Has this always happened, or did it just recently start?
I'm not getting any questions, just a request to enter my password.
George,
Is there an option to "save password in keychain"? When you created the account in Mail, did you enter a password?

Yes. It is different than the Keychain Password. When I open Mail or Safari, the dialog box reads, "Please enter your keychain password. Mail wants to use Keychain "login".
Is "login" an OS X keychain or an OS 9 keychain? Also, is "login" your short user name, or is it different from your short user name? If it's different, why is it different?

If y'all find an answer, I'll be amazed. I've had the same issue on my wifes iMac since jaguar, and nothing has permantly fixed it.
I gave up.
