        Hi,
you should be asked for a new password, the send should not just fail.
There was a bug on Fedora due to gcr  package changes, but as you use
Ubuntu it might be a different thing. Try to kill all evolution
processes (ps ax | grep evolution) and then
run /usr/libexec/evolution-source-registry (or a different place, I do
not know where Ubuntu stores the file) from a console and watch its
output. It shows "AUTH" lines, with "Initiated" and "Completed", where
the "Completed" also shows a resolution. It sometimes prints an error.
You can alternatively run the source registry with gcr debugging:
   $ GCR_DEBUG=all /usr/libexec/evolution-source-registry
which will also print information from gcr itself (I think it's "all",
but it can be also "1", I do not recall precisely).
        Hope it helps,
        Milan
