Network Password

Hi
Vista has suddenly started to pop up a box saying Enter Network Password.

My isp is listed already as is my user name and password. I have to press
Ok about three times before it will stay away for aprox 30 mins then it comes
back again.
I have checked the remember my password box but this makes no difference and
when the box next apears this is unchecked again. It does not seem to be
stopping anything but it sure is annoying.
Please can anyone help.

SMTP is your way to send mail. You will probably find something in your mail
options to set up your smtp id/password

That message is from your ISP's outging mail server. Some program is trying
to send mail. Do you have any idea which program? What is the complete
error message?

While in Windows Mail:
Click the Tools Menu
Choose "Accounts" towards the bottom of the menu
Hi-lite your email account and click "Properties"
Click the "Servers" tab

At the bottom of the dialog box
put a checkmark in "My server requires authentication"

Click "OK"
Click "Close"

There 'ya go!

I am in Outlook 2007 & it is not the same but thanks anyway. ISP said to
delete and set up mail accounts again this seems to have solved the problem.

I upgraded from XP to vista and from Office 2003 to 2007 at the same time
it's been a bit of a culture shock.
I don't know what I would have done without you guys
many thanks
