Remember me? i was the guy who mentioned that my passwords were getting
confused on a couple of domains. One minute it would work, the next minute
"invalid password" when gathering mail and the password is saved in the
e-mail program so it didn't change.
If you don't remember, the domains are going off of an external database
(Access). Some speculations were that Access is getting too busy so it
couldn't handle the load (but we have very few connections per hour). Other
speculations were too little RAM, which may still be the case.
But I did some investigation in the registry and found this out:
I go under HKLM\Software\IpSwitch\IMail\Domains\baaad-domain.com\users
And I find that all the users are defined in there with "folders". (what are
they, keys?) within these "folders" are values such as "Password".
I thought this was a little strange. I went under other domains and none of
these others have their users defined in the registry.
I can't remember, but it's possible I previously had this domain setup with
the Internet IMail database and converted it to External. If this is the
case, can I remove these Keys from the Registry?
Although none of the other users are having this trouble (only one user with
this trouble), could it be the IMail is getting confused as to which place
it should be authenticating from and it goes internally and not externally?
