When trying to send mail via a smtp autheticated server the program asks for 
the password after being offline.  When you enter the password then check the 
box saying add to password manager the mail will never send and the dialogue 
keeps coming up.  If you do not check the password manager box the mail sends 
fine.

You say it never saves the password and doesn't send the mail if you check the
option to remember the password?
Or only under some circumstances? What do you mean with "after being offline"?

And which version of TB you're talking about?
When I set my account up for SSL sending (which works with Outlook), I get 
problem 252753. When I set it up for non-SSL, I also get this problem. The 
application either repeatedly asking for password (if I don't click save 
password) or telling me the connection was unsuccessful (if I do click save 
password).
There appears to be linkage between this problem and 252753. I fixed problem 
252753 by specifying TLS rather than SSL, even though SSL is specified in 
Outlook. Even though I know that the connection works for non-SSL, it still 
persists in the behavior of this (247451) problem.
