Details

To reproduce, create an account, then enter the password. Then change the password through whatever means there is to change the password on your mail server's website. Then try to get messages. You get this dialog box: +-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Sending of password did not suceed. Mail server mail.rpi.edu responded: | | Password supplied for "boberb" is incorrect. | | [OK] | +-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ That's not very useful. Instead, there should be something like this: +-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Sending of password did not suceed. Mail server mail.rpi.edu responded: | | Password supplied for "boberb" is incorrect. | | | | Please change password | | New password: [***** ] [OK] | +-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
