User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.2.6) Gecko/20100625 Firefox/3.6.6
Build Identifier: Mozilla/Thunderbird 3.1.1

In the Compose window, an LDAP connection is made to look up addresses. A dialog box prompts me to enter a password. I enter the password, but _do not_ select that the password be remembered by the Password Manager. The lookup succeeds, and the mail is sent.

If I select the Compose window again, the LDAP connection requests the password be entered again!

The password should be remembered for the duration of the session, just as the SMTP, POP3 and IMAP passwords are remembered for the duration of the session.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. See above.
2.
3.
Actual Results:  
The LDAP password is not retained for the duration of the session, and must be re-entered each time a new email is composed.

Expected Results:  
The password should be remembered for the duration of the session, just as the SMTP, POP3 and IMAP passwords are remembered for the duration of the session.
