I have noticed recently various hotel WiFi systems change my email settings or both my iPhone and Mac Book Pro.

The first I know is I receive an email:

Quote:

Thank you

This changes my Pop 3 incoming settings from Authentication PASSWORD to Authentication MD5 Challenge-Response.

No big deal as it is very easy to change it back, but after changing it back to PASSWORD it then down loads ALL my emails from Pop sever.

Is there anyway to stop this??????

Please help!
