Mail password problems

This is driving me nuts. I have 3 email accounts. Two are fine but one of my secondary accounts is constantly asking for my password. I have saved it to my keychain, run keychain first aid and repaired permissions, all of which are suggestions from the Apple support site but the problem still persists.

When I checked the keychain list there seem to be several listings for passwords for each email account. This seems odd to me. Anyone know if this is normal.

Thanks
Rick

If you have been re-entering the password for the accounts the answer is yes it is not unexpected even if it is not completely normal. You can delete the duplicate entries in the keychain using Keychain Access. In fact you might delete all the entries for the accounts, start over and see if the problem disappears.
