203218 - MS Passport forces login to previously entered hotmail account. Cannot change account names

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect)

Description

[Richard Ranieri]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.4a) Gecko/20030401

I have multiple acocunts and check them daily.  When I sign out of one account
and then try to log into another account hotmail forces me to use the first
account I logged into.  

If I use IE the sign-in funcions in hotmail work properly.

I tried using the "I'm using a public computer" check box, still doesn't work.

It appears that the only way to sign in to another account is to reboot.



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Log into 1st hotmail account
2. DO NOT check the "sign me in automatically" box
3. sign out of hotmail
4. return to hotmail (either kill the browser, click the hotmail tab at MSN.com,
or re-type www.hotmail.com in the address bar)  All options function the same.
5. Hotmail will force you to use the email address from #1 above.



Actual Results:  
Forced to log into original account.  I cannot return to the "Email address" prompt.

Expected Results:  
I should have been returned to the page that allows input of my email address. 
If I use MS IE this functions correctly.
