What else would you use to log in to your Mail and News servers?
That's just *one* password, and if you use multiple servers one would
think you'd just associate each password with each server Account.
It's not like you're surfing from website to website and have tons of
them to retain, like when browsing.
Well yes, but the code for the Password Manager code already exists. You
(Thunderbird) could just borrow it. On the other hand you could write
another one specifically for mail/news from scratch.
Life is too short, yadda, yadda, yadda.

...you could simply jump around it. Which is what it looks like they've
done with the Profile Manager - I get two different graphic splashes
depending on if I invoke Profile Manager at startup or invoke Change
Profile from within the browser.
Which I have a suspicion is giving rise to some of the interface issues
I'm seeing...one path introduces some problems, the other doesn't - or
at least not as many. Same can probably be said of the Password Manager
and how it seems to be ignoring my Pref settings, so I'm not really sure
just how much code is really "shared" - as in duplicated verbatim.
