Thanks for the info, i find it very odd that a company that is suppose to take security seriously has such a flaw in the e-mail account system, my kids like to check their e-mails from other PC's so they need to know their passwords, the problem with this is they could, if they wanted, go in to the e-mail management system and change or delete any of the listed e-mail accounts except the primary one, they could also retrieve all passwords to all secondary e-mail accounts, this would allow them to read other family members e-mails without them knowing, this is bad if they are expecting any confidential e-mails.
