Title: Password problems Post by: Yuptar on September 24, 2006, 03:29:21 am I don't know where else to post this, so I'll post it here.
Something really weird is happening to me when I try to login. It won't accept my password even though I know it is correct. (I'm using the 'automatic' login feature of Seamonkey, so the password is not being mistyped.) I keep getting sent to the 'try again' screen, and then the 'request a new password' screen. Since I know the password is correct and is not being accepted, it seems unwise to try to change it. If it's getting mangled somewhere, an attempt to change could mangle it to something I don't know can't recover at all. Instead I just keep backing up and trying again. Eventually it does work. But it takes many tries. Usually half a dozen or so. How to tell if something is fumbling in the login script, or elsewhere? ???
