Default Outlook Mobile Service Password Greyed out

Did you work through the wizard to set it up online?

I tried both through the wizard and direct entry, it is greyed out in both
cases. It is likely a security issue but I need to know what in order to get
IT to fix it. I have no problem entering the same settings at home where I
am Administrator.

Does it perhaps store the password in registry key that is locked under our
security template, or in an encrypted file somewhere that I dont have write
access to?

Not to my knowledge - it should be stored in the same password depository as
other passwords.
