Q: How to stop Mail from asking for keychain password every time?

Had recently created new Keychain Access password, now, each time new MacMini is booted and Mail opened, warning says Mail wants to use Keychain password. How can I get it to remember it once and not ask again?

Thanks!

iMac, Mac OS X (10.5.1)

Hi Joey,

Keychain Access asks for keychain "login" after changing login password...

Open Keychain Access in Utilities, use Keychain First Aid under the Keychain Menu item, then either check the Password under that item, change it, or delete it and start over. Check if there are duplicate entries.

If Keychain First Aid finds an issue that it cannot repair, or if you do not know your keychain password, you may need to reset your keychain.
