Vincent,
Thanks for the help. Answers below:

On the Email page, the Port, Server Username, and Server Password
always stay - only the Admin Email and SMTP server are cleared out.

I modified the panel settings to display two panels on the left, and
no panels on the right. When the bug occurs, The "show left/right
panel?" settings are set to "--" and the "Panels to Display" are
blank.
The frequency of occurrence has dropped in the last day - at first it
was happening every 15-20 minutes, and today it went most of the day
with no apparent problems. The next time it occurs I will try to flush
the cache and see if that sheds any light...
thanks,
aaron
