Does it actually disappear from the settings of the email account? I get those messages from time to time and Almost never have to enter the password. I simply cancel them and move on without issue.
However, have you checked to see if you can get email on your email providers server without issue?
Thanks for your reply but my issue is different to yours because the password has to be entered in settings before I can get any new emails. Just don’t understand why the information isn’t being retained.
You’re welcome. I hope that was all that it took.
Have you tried deleting the email account and adding it back again? Sometimes, that’s easier than trying to troubleshoot step by step.
Did as you suggested a couple of hours ago. So far, so good! Thanks.
Many thanks! Not had a single request to enter the password since I followed your advice.
Excellent. Glad to hear it.
