androcles Posted September 28, 2004 Share Posted September 28, 2004 I have successfully collected email from my former service provider, but when I log on to spamcop it doesn't recognise the user name and password. Any ideas? If I can't get this working, it undermines one of the main reasons for moving my mail to Spamcop! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
androcles Posted September 28, 2004 Author Share Posted September 28, 2004 It's kinda annoying that with most webforms it remembers the user name and often the password. If it doesn't I can use autofill to put the name in. With Spamcop, several times a day I need to type my full email address including the domain, and the password, which is becoming increasingly irritating. Any way to stop this?

turetzsr Posted September 28, 2004 Share Posted September 28, 2004 Hi, androcles! ...Have you read the "pinned" items in this (SpamCop Email) forum and also the "SpamCop Email Setup" forum? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidT Posted September 28, 2004 Share Posted September 28, 2004 Please clarify...are you talking about logging in to the SC webmail system, or to the "www.spamcop.net" (or "mailsc.spamcop.net") reporting and account management site? It may be due to your browser selection. The "autofill" capabilities of the FireFox browser are *far* superior to that of Internet Explorer, in that if the URL differs slightly, then IE doesn't recognize the form as being the same, and won't fill them in for you. FireFox, OTOH, does. I'm transitioning everyone I know away from using IE. DT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevenUnderwood Posted September 28, 2004 Share Posted September 28, 2004 The way I understand it, the implementation of Hoard IMP does not allow IE to even attempt to store the password for webmail login. Other web browsers do not have this problem with IMP. androcles: Do I understand that the other thread you started has been solved? Could you please post your resolution for the next person who may find your thread matches their problem? Also, so others do not waste their time in posting answers to a question already solved.

Wazoo Posted September 28, 2004 Share Posted September 28, 2004 As the specifics are so unclear in both Topics, all has beenmerged into the first one started by this user. androcles, please add a bit more detail to what's going on and what the actual issue is. You make one complaint that you can't log in, but then making reference that you had moved your e-mail to SpamCop ... Maybe one could guess that you are complaining perhaps about trying to use a cell-phone to make a connection, but .... the term "SmartPhone" doesn't do much for me to make a stab as to what device, what OS, what tools might be involved. The next Topic you started .. is this also dealing with the cell-phone or not? And again, no mention of the platform, OS, tools in the mix .... hard to help ...

Other web browsers do not have this problem with IMP. Works fine for me with IE 5.0 W95B both my "Favorites" entry to webmail and the Check Mail menu entry from VER and "Report spam" work and all I have to type is one character to retrieve both email addie and P/W Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevenUnderwood Posted September 29, 2004 Share Posted September 29, 2004 I have never had webmail save the password using anything from Win95 through WinXPSP2 IE5-6.1. VER and reporting page work fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
