nsbranch 2001-10-08 win2k This may coincide with the checkin for Simple MAPI, but now on startup I get "login failed" for all listed accounts, in this case four accounts: work, aol, webmail and yahoo. All failure dialogs come in succession, however, it appears that I am successfully being logged in, as new mail does appear in my work account at the very least. Taking a guess that this has something to do with the simple mapi checkin.
I'm pretty sure this has nothing to do with simple mapi. There's no over lap between simple mapi and account login. I'm using the same build as Kevin. No problems logging into any of my accounts here (including webmail). FWIW
Happens 100% of the time on startup of Mail.
Trix: Can you repro this one?
Changing component to Mail Back End per mscott's comments, and changing summary to reflect that this is only happening for netscape webmail accounts. This is happening on my WinME machine at home as well. Adding nsbranch to get some swirl.

reassigning to mscott for the nsbranch nomination. I don't know if this is related to mapi at all. Over the summer I could never login to webmail or aol mail and it wasn't until I logged into IM in this product that I could use these accounts. I don't know if something similar is happening. BTW, this should be a bugscape bug.

IMHO - the servers seemed *whack* yesterday. However, I haven't had a problem logging into WebMail in a week, and when I did have a problem, it seemed to be both in 4x and 6x.

we alreayd have a bugscape bug tracking intermitten webmail logon failures. Just closing this one out. add yourelf to 9038. I also think it's just an intermitten server problem and that bug will probably be closed out as WFM too.
