Password prompts are triggered by authentication demands from the =
server. If you are getting prompted it is because the server requested =
it or you configured Outlook to prompt. Enabling Outlook logging and/or =
capturing a network trace would go a long way to indicate why a prompt =
occurs.

Account settings are a per-user. This could be a difference, =

this issue.
Password prompting is a per-use per-account setting. It also can =

triggered by the server. As one example, below is the setting for a=20
Microsoft Exchange Server account in Outlook 2003. Your intermittent=20
behavior though sounds like it is the server rejecting the =
authentication=20
and forcing the reauth for the session.
What I haven't seen in this thread is the type of account, type of=20

then whether these are domain accounts or not, if the user logs on to =
that=20
domain account or uses saved passwords, and similar is probably also=20

But why would it work for some clients going to the same address =
from the

struggling with
this for some time).
I still have one or two Outlook XP installs where the login window =
pops=20
up,
asking for password, you click OK after entering it, and it goes =
away.
Then, on the next retrieve cycle, it's back. Mail still sends and=20
retrieves
properly, and nobody else in the building has that problem. I've =
moved to=20
a
different switch port, etc. Then, when it goes away, it's gone for =
weeks.
We even ran that laptop without AV for a couple of days.

I'm surprised that a virus scanner could cause the error =
reported. I
believe that error indicates that none of the email accounts support =
the
recipient's address usually because it's an unsupported transport =
(not
SMTP).

Did you try sending mail with no virus scanner installed?
