mail password not remembering

Mail keeps asking for my @me.com password. It is never remembering it. This is new with the Mavericks update. What's the problem?

OS X Mavericks (10.9), 6 monitors

This from another thread:


So I found this and it works:


Open the Mail app. Go to Preferences. Click on the Accounts tab, and then the Advanced tab.

Look for the Authentication box. If you're having this problem, it will be set to "Password." Click on the box and select "Apple Token."

Apple uses Tokens as a secure way to access iCloud services without having to use your password, by providing your username and password to the app over an encrypted SSL connection.
