Hello.

I use SeaMonkey v2.46's e-mail client, on my home TWC ISP and computers,
to download and upload my e-mails. I noticed when it prompts me for my
password for my @roadrunner.com e-mail address, I can put anything and
still send e-mails even if it is incorrect. Is this happening to you
guys too? I just noticed this today. This is like a security hole. :/

Thank you in advance. :)

According to
https://www.dslreports.com/forum/r31417239-TWC-mail-twc-com-s-SMTP-login-password-issue
, this is by design. :/
