When I click on the outlook icon in the taskbar, instead of opening the client a dialogue box comes up and says: &quot;enter your user name and password for the following server...smtp.mail.yahoo.c<wbr />om. <br />
<br />
But my user name and password are filled in already. When I click ok, I get the dialogue box again. I checked my user account settings and everything looks okay. <br />
<br />
In the user account screen, I re-entered what Ii thought was the password (8 characters) but after I hit cancel in that dialogue box the number of asterisks in the password changes to 9. &nbsp; &nbsp;I swear the password was 8 characters. &nbsp;What gives?
