I'm setting up M Desktop on an older Windows XP machine (Win XP Home 2002 Version, SP3). At the login screen during install, I tried all my emails and PWs but nothing worked, so I clicked on "Forgot PW" and put in my email address. I received the PW reset email with link.

I used to do usability research, and I'm a very impatient computer users. I worry that things like this a have a ripple effect on M's reputation. One good start at fixing this is to have more meaningful error messages, such as adding, "This is because...See help documentation here for more information".
