 Hi,

 Using MSN, don't know about others protocols because the password is
 saved.

 Why everytime I put my password incorrectly is so difficult to put it
 correctly again (Modifying account password, deactivating account,
 activating it again)?

 What about if the password/name is incorrect, the input password window
 (the one that appears the first time you activate an account) is shown?
 Isn't it better?

 Other approach is to add a "Re-Enter Password" option in the "Can't
 aunthenticate" message above the status box that is shown when the
 password is wrong. This message already has some options like "Ignore",
 "Modify account" and "Re-Enable", it wouldn't hurt to add this. I like
 this approach better.

 Matias
