[G5] Mail password prob

[Snow White]

Every time your ISP server does not accept the password communication 
from your computer (or router) Mail will shift that account offline and 
ask for the password.  Mail assumes that the stored password is 
incorrect, when it is in fact your crappy ISP dieing at the other end.

Just put your account back online and tell it to Get Mail. (Unless of 
course your password is truly wrong)

Good luck
