I managed to get in. I'll have to really learn more about how
to set up this account/groups stuff. Is there some good
documentation on how do it correctly? I thought I could set up
an admin group called "rick" but for somereason in order for
me to get in I had to try "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" and then use the
password I associated with this account. Maybe that's the way
it's supposed to work.
Now the question is .... in the meantime until I can learn how
to use this group set up, how do I turn it off so that I do
not have to log in?
(In case anyone cares all I want to have done is have a
seperate log in for me, my wife, and my brother. When the log
in I only want them to see their accounts and not the others.
Is this easy to do? I was close to figuring it out but I must
be screwing something up. Somehow when I set up my wife's
account it didn't have a password for her group access. She
just typed "rachel" and she was able to get in with no
password. It's actually ok if their is no password for them. I
just want them all to be able to use the Bat but only see
their account mailboxes).
Thanks for eveyone's patience:)
