Outlook Web Access - Checking Remember My Password DoesNot Work
We use Exchange 2003 and have quite a few users using OWA. When they log in, they are checking the remember my password check box. However, next time they log on, they are being asked again.
In addition, each time they click on a mail to open it or try to open an attachment, they are again beingasked for they username and password.
It is not affecting all users, so I presume it is a local machine setting rather than on the Exchange Server itself.

A second thought just popped into my head. Sometimes, regardeless of SP level, IE will mess up on saving passwords. Can you save passwords to other secure sites? You may need to clear all of your IE saved passwords and try again. Just a thought.

They are not running SP", but I will give the trusted sites thing a go and report back

Neither worked, could it be a local policy thing?
if so, what policy should I be looking for?

What we did was add the URL of the OWA to our Trusted Sites in IE. Then, when we clicked to save the password it worked.
Please let us know what OS's your workstations are running (including SP levels) so that we may help further. Or simply try adding the URL to Trusted Sites and see if that helps.
Although I appreciate MS trying to put more security into their OS, I would prefer that they allow me to choose the level of security I require. Since all of my OWA use is within a VPN only, I didn't require the level of security that MS was pushing.
