Mail client created a mystery password for my email account which was not in my
Password Manager list.  Pop3 server kept rejecting me for wrong password when
I'd not submitted a password and, again, password was not shown on Password
Manager.  I removed account and reentered.  This time when I downloaded
messages, I was asked for password, I entered it dialog box and it was listed on
my Password Manager list and everything was working fine.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Get msgs
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
Error message from my pop3 server saying "pass failed, incorrect password."

No password on my Password List.

Expected Results:  
Shown me incorrect password on password list or queried me for password.

Probably dupe of bug 203219 (All POP3 accounts fail with repeat password dialog,
IMAP accounts OK).
