Whether a "Saved Password" in FF is filled in automatically when
revisiting a web site depends on whether FF recognizes the web page
location and page contents as one for which a password has been saved
before. Sometimes, web pages get moved or updated and changed in ways that
require you to type in your credentials and save them again. You can
display the saved passwords in FF's Preferences.

If you connect with FastMail, do you do it at a HTTP or HTTPS address?
In case of the former, figure out the 'https://...' location of the
login page and create a bookmark for that one.

There are web browsers other than Mozilla Firefox. You are free to choose.
