After upgrading to V8, I’m being prompted to re enter my email address and password as a new client. The add fails claiming that either the password is incorrect, (it’s not, I checked). and that authentication failed. there are no options on the setup screen to modify servers or ports.
CAUTION: I would go back to v7 (if that is where you started) and start again… I don’t remember ever having to supply email address and password when i installed v8.
CAUTION; Be careful and ensure you have a backup of v7 since the databases are incompatible, v7/v8.
CAUTION: I just read that someone that described the same type problem ended up losing everything and did not have a v7 backup…
