Password dialog is not very understandable. Could be much better.

When accessing a mail server where I need to enter a password I'm presented with
a dialog that says:
Enter your password for hegetest@fep2.sprawl.dk.
[____________________]
Why doesn't the dialog says:
"Please enter your username and password for the following server:
Server : fep2.sprawl.dk
Username: [hegetest____________]
Password: [____________________]
That would be soo much easier to understand for the user. Futhermore you have
the ability to change the username incase you misspelled at the time of
creation.

This seems like a UI issue to me...I'll let Jennifer have the final
say....Although be warned, this dialog is the common password dialog for the
whole app so changing it changes it for all seamonkey apps that use the password
dialog.

Improving the wording on the dialog would be fine by me! Reassign to Simone,
our tech pubs person. This dialog will also need changes because of Password
Manager stuffs.

Please see http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=39653 as I think the
outcome of that will resolve this bug. The UI for this is out of my hands at the
moment, so I'm marking this bug INVALID (although it's really a duplicate, of
sorts).
