Outlook 2002

Every time I open Outlook 2002 to pick up my emails I am greeted with the anoyance of a box popping up and asking me to "enter networking password". I am not connected to any network, anyone with any idea's how to stop this popping up and I would be most grateful.

open outlook

go to tools,

accounts,

click on your pop mail account

connection

make sure you have the box checked for your internet service,

if you are a dialup user make sure the box for LAN is unchecked or grayed out, otherwise it will prompt you for your Lan password.

Sorry Big Booger, I am on Outlook 2002 and there are no Accounts in the Tools on my version of Outlook 2002 only Email Accounts and this requires my pop mail server to be entered anyway to receive mail. Your suggestion therefore could not be tried. However although I use Outlook 2002 for email I have found that if I set up an account in Outlook Express then I do not receive the annoying popup box.

email accounts, accounts....

Similar to Big Booger's instructions but in 2002:

Tools --> Email Accounts

Click on View or Change and click next

Highlight the account you want to work with and Double-Click

Look at the Log On Information -

Should have User name and Password. Below password is a box to 'remember password' Make sure that is checked.

Now click on Test -- see if all is good.
