[QUOTE="chas_m, post: 1106004"] Last question first: you delete that site's entry on the Keychain. The next time you visit, it will act as though you've never been there before and prompt you to save the password. For the Mail question, Mail doesn't use the Keychain (oddly enough). Your passwords for POP/SMTP or iMAP status are contained within Mail itself. Check the preferences. For the lack of understanding on what the various Keychains are, my blunt answer is "don't worry about it -- except for the one with your user name." The others are used by the system itself and really aren't worth digging into unless this field is a hobby of yours. Confine yourself to examining the one keychain with your name on it and it should make plenty of sense.
