This is the problem.  You should not supply a password for the account
in the configuration file.  It makes only sense to define encrypted
passwords with the password editor, for those accounts that do not have
a password already defined in the configuration file.

You should use a line like:

  account account1 david at xxxxx.xxxxx.net
