Re: [Evolution] endless password prompt

[John Lauterbach <lauterba bellsouth net>]

Hello Milan:

This is a troublesome problem that has affected all versions of evolution I have used up to and including 3.16.3.   If the e-mail service provided has technical problems, and evolution cannot connect with provider's server, for example, evolution puts out this error and it effectively "locks" the account until evolution can again make contact with the server.  There should be a user-controllable option in evolution to ignore such errors.

	Hi,
I recall something similar being discussed around the 3.12.9 you have,
but I do not recall any detail.

What is the account type, please? Is it IMAP/POP3/...? It's important
to know, to know where to guide further debugging.
	Bye,
	Milan
