RMAIL can only use one POP password even with multiple accounts

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:

I use two different POP accounts for my email (sometimes I even use a
third account as well). I specify my accounts in the list
rmail-primary-inbox-list:
(setq rmail-primary-inbox-list '("po:bijan@psq.com:pop.psq.com"
                                 "po:trustno1@crasseux.com:mail.crasseux.com"))

Then I set the variable rmail-pop-password-required to t so that rmail
will ask me for my password:
(setq rmail-pop-password-required t)

Finally I run M-x rmail

Then I am prompted for a password. I enter the password for my first
account, rmail then says it's gettign my mail from the server but then
it says that the authentication failed. However if I only specify one
of my two POP accounts in rmail-primary-inbox-list then I get my
emails without a problem.

This shouldn't be that difficult to fix. Simply use one password for
each pop account.

Or prompt the user with something like:
password for bijan@psq.com:
password for trustno1@crasseux.com:

Thanks in advance,
