Mail username and password error

Mail keeps logging me out of three of my email accounts (two Gmail and one Dreamhost).


When I restart, everything is fine for a short while, but after a while they disconnect.


I've gone into Accounts in Mail preferences, but I don't see anywhere in the Gmail accounts where I can enter a password. For the Dreamhost account, there is a field for password, and it is correct.


Any ideas?
