SORRY! reply should have been for Lexi! Too late, Too much reading !@@! Janet <heavensbluemoon@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: Michele I have OS-XP and Outlook 6, with multiple accounts. I was having the same problem. Here is fix that helped me....... From the main outlook menu select File Identities (you should see all four of your identities, if not add them) When I want to 'mass' download I go here and UNCHECK require password. I do this with each identity EXCEPT my main account which I always leave checked. When I hit receive, I can then walk away and it will go thru each one until complete. I then go back and check the "require password" for security reasons of course. It is a bit of fooling around but it only takes a minute and is better than nothing at all!

I've tried the service packs, editing the registry (protected storage system) and such to no avail. I've even reinstalled my entire os, nothing seems to work for long. Editing the registry seems to work for a time but not long enough and the problem is I have a ton of email that needs to download 24/7 and it can't download say at 9:30 when I'm in bed and it's prompting for the password. Email gets backed up and that's a problem! I know I've asked this on here before but maybe someone has a solution noww?
