email password showing automatically

mac book pro 12.4

My email password has suddenly started showing when I login to my web based email (not mail). This is insecure and I want to be asked for the password. I cannot identify why this has suddenly started nor can I see my email password in keychain access. No other account is affected.

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 10.13

First thing to do is clear your cookies. Go to the web mail site to initiate login and if it asks for a password don’t save it if a dialogue box pops up asking.
