email authorization dialog

[senorian]

this window keeps on appearing with the message:

you need to supply a username and a password to access this mailbox.

It then shows my name and my email address and I have to type in the password that my ISP set up for me.

It seems to be required for each email that I receive.
I have looked into the "help" and the "configure kmail" areas but can not find anything referring to this "authorization dialog".

I phoned the ISP but he said the problem was at my end!
TIA

Re: email authorization dialog

In Kmail, click "Settings">"configure Kmail">Accounts>Receiving>{your-isp}>Modify>Password{enter it}>"Store POP password"{click it}.

Re: email authorization dialog

very many thanks
Your instructions seem to have fixed my problem.
If only the "help" section of Kmail  had been as informative!
Thanks
