Hi all - I've got a problem I can't figure out, and I hope someone knows a fix, because it's driving me nuts. I have been having some problems getting my web pages uploaded to my new account, and in trouble shooting it, the techs have changed my passwords a couple of times. So I have new passwords. I plugged them into the 'transport' page of the accounts properties. However, the bat doesn't want to know about them, and keeps demanding that I put them in again. The checkbox in the POP window for 'don't save the password' is *unchecked* ... it saved it fine before. I've closed TB and reopened it, to no avail ...

Hi The Bat! user, After reading peoples comments on MailWasher, I decided to give it a go. I know you can do lots of the stuff using the Mail Dispatcher, but just wanted to try mailwasher myself and to try it out for a friend with a Hotmail account. On that note, quick question, I can't remember if TB! support Hotmail accounts? The problem is, I can't remember my receive mail password and I can't copy and paste it from TB! to mailwasher, as TB! doesn't allow the copying of the password. Is there anyway I can find out what my password is? So embarrassing and annoying!!!
