[AktiviX-discuss] Re: Problems changing password

[maqui at syndicate.org.uk]

Hiya,

Thanks Alan and mp for prompt reply.

I've followed the instructions below to change the password, and it worked.

but as mp mentions in another mail:
"3. contain upper case alphabetic char (I have one that doesn't; we need
clarification:).... was this an earlier setting that permitted this?"

it also accpeted mine without upper case alphabetic char. i hope this is not a
problem for you lot, if it is i'll change it following the instructions all the
way :-0

also cheers Alan for "there is normal unencrypted pop now ..  surely we should
encourage use of encryption though wherever possible :-)"

i have not tried it yet, but i'll do it soon. i agree, security it's very
important for our communications ... but my Mac(ito) can't handle enryptions
very well ... but even though ... i still love it (been with us for many years
now! :) 

cheers

maqui
