When a mail account is accessed, the program asks for a password and

Is it possible (via some pref?) to make the remember password checkmark

I'm on the latest SM update. SM never has asked me if I want to remember
an email account password. I wish it would. this is a source of great
irritation to me.
Your problem is that a growing number of Web sites use JavaScript to
handle logins, which is not supported by Password Manager. See bug
#355063 at <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=355063>.

No, that wasn't his complaint.
I'm assuming since he didn't say either way that he's talking about
downloading POP mail, not viewing it on a webmail site. In that case,
SeaMonkey should ask for the password and ask whether it should remember
it. And that's been my experience in the past.
Now back to the original subject. We do get that popup (for an IMAP
account) and it does have the "remember" checkbox, but by default it
is not checked. I want to change that (within a company) to show the
checkbox checked when this popup appears.
Anyone know how such a popup is constructed, how to find the piece
of code where that happens, and if it is possible to change such a
default?
Maybe those popups are not even constructed in code but are defined
in some xml or other resource file, which can be modified. I don't
know. But best would be to change it using a pref, as I can modify
those in my locked pref file that is automatically distributed to all
users.
Why does SM have a "remember"checkbox for IMAP and not for POP accounts?
SM used to remember my POP PW. that changed a few updates ago.
