Description of problem: If it try to read my emails from my imap-server with evolution, ev. keeps asking for the password. The first two times it is just the normal dialog for inputing the password, the 3rd time it says: imap command failed: login only available under layer and keeps asking for the password. Curious (to me at least) is, that ev. did fetch folder structure but not any messages. My imap requires SSL and I am using DIGEST-MD5 for encryption of my password. F9's (and earlier) Evolution worked with same settings fine. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.24.1 How reproducible: every time Steps to Reproduce: 1. launch Evolution 2. Fetch Mails (F9)
Thus, I can add, this is not Fedora-specific. Ubuntu 8.10 using also Evolution 2.24 the same annoying behaviour.
Isn't this the other instance of the upstream bug [1], which I caused some time ago? [1] http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=552583
Seems so. I am marking my report as a duplicate.
Thanks for the info. I do not think we can mark as duplicate of the other/upstream bug, thus closing this as upstream.
