Possible dup of 169484? in particular c.f. this: "I can reproduce the behaviour described in the recipe: if I switch from "Secure Password" to Plaintext Password" and check the "Remember Password" option in the initial wizard, these settings are not preserved on restart. However, this bug appears to only affect the initial account creation wizard. If I subsequently edit the account, changes made to these fields are preserved on a restart of Evolution." This is reproducable if I tell it to use SSL 'Whenever possible', rather than always using it (apparently it doesn't like 'Whenever Possible', and doesn't cope well with it being changed to what it does like). If I change to Always SSL, I will need to restart Evo in order for it to work. I suspect that defaulting to "Always" from the get go will make it happy enough. No, I don't think this is a dup of that other bug, as it appears to relate to SSL settings, not password settings. I note that if one starts Evo with it set to Always, and moves to 'Whenever Possible', it copes. It only doesn't cope if it starts with 'Whenever Possible' and you try to change to 'Always'. I also note that I'm using my IMAP account on mail.boston.redhat.com Also possibly related: if one's Evo is set up to use POP (in this case, it was not set up in a way that would work), and then one tries to change to IMAP, it'll ask for the password but not add the IMAP folders to the mail folders view. Wasn't sure if it related or not; if you think not, I can make another bug. Evolution 2.0.2 is only being updated for security issues. Closing as WONTFIX. |
