Do you have the "do not store password, prompt on mail retrieval"
option checked?

That's the old behavior. Now if you don't have the option mentioned
above checked, and you leave the password field empty in the account
properties, TB would prompt, but just once. If you check the "update
account data" option at this time, TB would write the password into
the account properties (shown as a series of *). If you don't check
the option, the password field in account properties remains empty,
but TB doesn't ask anymore. At least that's how it behaves here.
