security. Newsgroups read ok, but have to enter uname and p-wd each time
entering a newsgroup, and password manager does not seem to work.

I am attending UOP online and everytime I open my newsgroups it asks me for my 
user name and password, is there anyway to work around this?

[Michael Tourigny]

I also am attending UOP online and I have noticed that too under Linux.  I also
noticed that after posting to the write only folder (BUG# 266828) it asks for my
password again.

P.S. This is the first time I used bugzillia, I'm sorry.  Did I do this right?

This is an automated message, with ID "auto-resolve01".

This bug has had no comments for a long time. Statistically, we have found that
bug reports that have not been confirmed by a second user after three months are
highly unlikely to be the source of a fix to the code.

While your input is very important to us, our resources are limited and so we
are asking for your help in focussing our efforts. If you can still reproduce
this problem in the latest version of the product (see below for how to obtain a
copy) or, for feature requests, if it's not present in the latest version and
you still believe we should implement it, please visit the URL of this bug
(given at the top of this mail) and add a comment to that effect, giving more
reproduction information if you have it.

If it is not a problem any longer, you need take no action. If this bug is not
changed in any way in the next two weeks, it will be automatically resolved.

This is not a duplicate of 286628. If it is a duplicate of any bug it would be 266828.
