I haven't opened a bug on launchpad, no, but I can. I guess you are
referring to the first problem I described, about the password requests
in Keyring and SMTP?

(ïA bug was already posted re my second issue (of the cross-outs on mail
transfer from folder to folder) as per the site given by Milan
(http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=535749)

Sure, I can do that. May I ask, (1) is this meant as a fix for the first
issue I raised, or the second?  (2) Are these pre-release updates safe,
and is there all sorts of other untested stuff going to be downloaded in
addition to the fix? 
                                (3) Is this setting just for today and
then to be turned off, or are you recommending that one leave this
setting permanently to enable pre-release updates?

Thanks,
