[QUOTE="RadDave, post: 1513707, member: 234411"] Hi [B]Nicholas[/B] - this seems to be a common complaint w/ the Mail app - check [URL="http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-13727_7-57319630-263/e-mail-servers-rejecting-passwords-in-os-x-mail/"]HERE[/URL] for some discussion and potential fixes. I've own my r-MBP for about 5 weeks now and have Mail setup w/ my Yahoo account - I occasionally get the bouncing mail icon to confirm my password - quite irritating the other day w/ its frequency! Early last month I left a post in another forum w/ many responses verifying the problem - probably relates to password confirmation @ the mail server end was the conclusion - now, I've not yet tried the previous recommendation but will add to my list of potential solutions! Good luck & let us know if you find an answer - will likely help others - :) [/QUOTE]
