Then this is desired behaviour.

the desired behaviour is that we ask you only once per run of thunderbird...

Similar problem on PC running XP and T'bird 1.5.  Upon opening, as expected, I get a dialogue box asking for password.  No problem here, but after composing a message and pressing "send" the dialogue box re-appears asking for password again.  Once given, T'bird does not request the password to send subsequent messages.

I think this bug is WFM. I did not ask Thunderbird to remember my password, Thunderbird asked me once and for the rest of the session sending of mail didn't cause the login dialog to come up.

Latest 3.0a2pre Mac build on Leopard.

Reporters, does the issue still occur?
