Has anyone ever seen it where the password was shown onscreen to the user that was
logged in? Some type of coding error? Sounds like a security risk..

I hadn't seen this problem on a Mac using NS4.7 UNTIL someone tried
changing their password from a Mac running Netscape 3.x. Actually
I've had this happen to 3 people so far. I tried changing the
password on one of those accounts from NS4.7 yesterday and it
wouldn't let me--same error. I tried again today and it allowed me to
change it. The other thing I've noticed is temp files with a .EXT
extension in the main users directory.
I just received this from tech support:
IMail 6.03 will fix the problems in Web Messaging from Macs. We
expect 6.03 by mid-March.
The .ext files are created during a password change by Web Messaging.
I have not been able to link the file with the "Try after some time"
message. You may safely delete .ext files.
