The editor said the reporter was trying to authenticate the online exchanges between MD4Bush and Steffen, and did not participate in the actual postings.

Why would you need somebody's password to "authenticate" their postings?

Because they were in Freepmail- not actual public postings.

The "postings" were FReepmails. You can't see FReepmails unless you log in. And the FReepmails were dumped on a public thread shortly before the Washington Post's article was published.

Ask Mary Mapes.

Where do you think she got the memos?

(She stole them from Buckhead! Everyone knows that!)

You need their password to peak at saved FReepmail. Remember, MD4Bush is the one who had the exchange with NCPAC via FReepmail and posted the mail from him in open forum the day a WAPO story came out.

In Freepmail. Realize of course most of these articles are written by people totally unfamiliar with FR.
