Click to expand...

I'm presuming that you changed or added a password to your PST file and
is not the password for your user authentication in your e-mail
accounts.

Right-click on the root folder of your PST file (usually marked "Outlook
Today"), click Properties in the context menu, click the Advanced button
on the General tab panel, click Change Password. According to the Help
there:

Save this password in your password list

Stores your password in your password list so that you will not be
prompted for the password each time you connect to this personal folder
file. A password is only required if you log on with a different name or
if another user attempts to connect to your personal folder file.

So is this option enabled? If so, it's doing what you configured it to
do.
