Firefox keeps asking for password when I send emails

Firefox version 35.0. When I open Firefox and get messages, no problems. When I write an email and send, Firefox asks me for password. I am able to send/receive emails while open. If I close Firefox and open, it asks for password when I send. Months ago, I changed my login password to Netzero.com (made it more secure). Since then, I've had this annoying password request. How to satisfy the login server password for receiving/sending emails?

Is it Firefox asking for the password, or the web site? The only time that FF will ask for a password is if you have the Master Password active in the Password Manager.

Open the Password Manager. There is a search bar at the top of the page. Enter the name of the site. Press the button Show Passwords. Is the information correct? Note: there may be more then one entry.

Left click the icon in the address bar. A window for displaying site information should come up. Select More Information. At the top of the window, select Security. Now select View Saved Passwords.
