Hi,

I think I've found a bug in emacs, although this may be too strong a
claim.  In particular, I use ange-ftp to edit remote files, and very
much appreciate this capability.  the problem is when I enable the
open recent item on the file menu.  I activate this in .emacs with:

(require 'recentf)
(recentf-mode 1)

During startup, I am asked for the password to one of the servers on
which I recently visited a file via ange-ftp.  This is rather
annoying.  Is there a way to disable this, or have a password
requested only when I actually try to view the file?

I am running emacs on a x86-64 machine with opensuse.  The precise
version info is below.

Cheers,
David Strozzi
